Lady Phyl and The Fretless - Wondering Where the Lions Are

Sun's up, and it looks okay
The world survived into another day
Got me thinking bout eternity

I had another dream about lions at my door
They weren't half as frightening as they were before
It's got me thinking about eternity
Got me thinking bout eternity

Walls windows trees, waves are coming through
You be in me and I'll be in you
Together for 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's got me, ecstasy's got me

Wondering where the lions are (wondering where the lions are)
I'm wondering where the lions are (wondering where the lions are)
Wondering where the lions are
Wondering where the lions are

Huge orange flying boat rises off a lake
Thousand-year-old petroglyphs do 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 and precise like the brain behind the gun
Should be! they got me thinking about eternity
But some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me

Wondering where the lions are (wondering where the lions are)
I'm wondering where the lions are (wondering where the lions are)
Wondering where the lions are
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,
We're going to sail into eternity
some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me


I'm wondering where the lions are (wondering where the lions are)
I'm wondering where the lions are
I'm wondering where the lions are
Wondering where the lions are
Wondering where the lions are
Wondering where the lions are
(Oooh)
Wondering where the lions are
