Sun's up, uh huh, looks okay
|
The world survives into another day
|
And I'm thinking about eternity
|
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me
|
|
I had another dream about lions at the door
|
They weren't half as frightening as they were before
|
But I'm thinking about eternity
|
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me
|
|
Walls windows trees, waves coming through
|
You be in me and I'll be in you
|
Together in eternity
|
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me
|
|
Up among the firs where it smells so sweet
|
Or down in the valley where the river used to be
|
I got my mind on eternity
|
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me
|
|
And I'm wondering where the lions are...
|
I'm wondering where the lions are...
|
|
Huge orange flying boat rises off a lake
|
Thousand-year-old petroglyphs doing a double take
|
Pointing a finger at eternity
|
I'm sitting in the middle of this ecstasy
|
|
Young men marching, helmets shining in the sun,
|
Polished as precise like the brain behind the gun
|
(Should be!) they got me thinking about eternity
|
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me
|
|
And I'm wondering where the lions are...
|
I'm wondering where the lions are...
|
|
Freighters on the nod on the surface of the bay
|
One of these days we're going to sail away,
|
Going to sail into eternity
|
Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me
|
|
And I'm wondering where the lions are...
|
I'm wondering where the lions are...
