Gondala - Leon

Wildfire was ripping right through boot hill town
The smoke filled up my eyes
Leon ran across the road and pulled me out
And we got out just in time
Running through the fires like a great big hound
I was going blind
It was hard but we'd soon find the beach

Leon lived in town a while he knew me well
I owed him with my life
I told him all I pulled before the cabins fell
Was daddy's hunting knife
Leon said if you've got any soul to sell
We're in clean paradise
Was all I could do to believe

He said as sure as there's evil in this world
As sure as there's evil in this world
If we start seeing omens
We will lose our heads
Let's be on our way my friend

Leon led me down to the edge of town
Down to the oceanside
I'll never in my life forget that ocean swell
And how the moon did shine
As it set over the water we began to howl lord
It gave me peace of mind
To toss back my head in the breeze

Next morning I awoke to hear the siren wail
I saw the sheriff lights
Leon had run off that night and left a trail
Of blood drawn with a knife
All for a little gold he'd have me waste in jail
Serving for his crimes
What I wouldn't give to be free

As sure as there's evil in this world
As sure as there's evil in this world
If we start seeing omens we will lose our heads
Let's be on our way my friend
