lyrics

Darling it came back to me slowly
While I was working in the morning rain
Thinking about how the full moon last night
Danced between my window pane

It was over two years ago now
We made our way to the lion’s head
By this moonlight we climbed that mountain
With a couple blankets we would spread

It was there we moved the pebbles
Gathered up some bigger stones
Stacked them one foot high to block the wind
From entering in our new home

To the east, the Mother City
To the west, the brisk blue sea
To the south, table mountain looked north
At an island’s history

From the lion’s eyes
From the lion’s head…

CHORUS
We watched the sun dive down into the ocean
We watched the city lights flicker and fade
We watched the darkness make love to the mountains
While discovering what the stars displayed

And as I held you like the morning holds the sun
The universe ran down our spines (pause guitar)
We tasted freedom, we tasted the sea upon our tongues
We tasted everything align

We woke before the city,
Before the sunlight came
Had no rooftop, had no walls,
Just horizons as our window panes

You read, I played sweet music
Looking down from above the clouds
Through the clearings the sea was mighty
Calling our names out loud

From the lion’s eyes
From the lion’s head…

CHORUS
