Hoyt Axton - Lion In The Winter lyrics

Like a lion in the winter I can hear the summer call Like a ship out on the ocean made of stone And sometimes when I get lonely I can swear I hear you call Oh, the nights are cold when you don't keep me warm. And when I first saw you I first loved you With a song that I sang to the fire in your eyes But somebody told you that it wouldn't be easy And you carried that lie for the devil to sing. Some sail rivers deep and muddy some sail rivers clear and cold But the river that I'm sailin' goes to sea And sometimes I do grow weary sometimes I feel old And sometimes I wonder if you think of me. And when I first saw you I first loved you With a song that I sang to the fire in your eyes But somebody told you that it wouldn't be easy And you carried that lie for the devil to sing. Like a lion in the winter I can hear the summer call Like a ship out on the ocean made of stone And sometimes when I get lonely I can swear I hear you call Oh, the nights are cold when you don't keep me warm. And when I first saw you I first loved you With a song that I sang to the fire in your eyes But somebody told you that it wouldn't be easy And you carried that lie for the devil to sing
