I searched You there in the reek of the night In my hour of need You bereaved me of thy consolation Mercy I sought I never found in you Where were you!?!?! Prayed for You in my plight Lonely roaming In search of you You turned the Lion loose into the Night
On the back of the Pale He loves me like a beast loves its prey I'm only pa**ing thru' no one may stay Ride cowboy, Ride, for one last time The Lion is on the loose In the Night [Lyrics by Jan Kuhanen]
