Ortense Blue and the Angry Forest - Dragons and Lions

Dragons and Lions
I walk behind them all shackled in chains
There’s blood on my feet, but I can’t turn away
I’ll keep upright and I’ll keep my eye on what’s right

Though they may taunt me to find out your name
My promise of silence is worth any pain
Just keep upright tonight, keep your eye on what’s right

These men may take my light, not my love
I’ll carry on with our fight
there’ll be better times,
when we cast down our swords
and forget about dragons and lions

They’re twisting the rope now, I see cold hearted stares
Four years spent without you but I’ll not despair
I’m still upright tonight, with my eye on what’s right

These men may take my light...not my love
I’ll carry on with our fight
there’ll be better times,
when we cast down our swords
and forget about dragons and lions

Upon Offa’s Dyke in the deep of the night
Do you cast your eyes toward heaven
Do you see in the sky the tears that I cry?
Or just the sword of Orion?

These men may take my light, not my love
I’ll carry on with our fight
there’ll be better times,
when we cast down our swords
and forget about dragons and lions

These men may take my light, not my love
I’ll carry on with our fight
there’ll be better times,
when David and George
forget about dragons and lions
