Once more, for the dollhouse,
Will we ever paint the walls?
Once more, for the mountains,
May we find them at our door.
Your dreams are so quiet,
Don't you need them anymore?
Some day, we'll be lions, and we'll sing out to them all.
One day when I'm older,
Will I find out where you've gone?
We swore to no strangers,
Now they've crowded up our hearts.
So long to the wreckage,
I won't hide it if it's wrong.
Some day we'll be lions, we'll be dancing as before.
Your dreams are so quiet,
Don't you need me anymore?
Some day we'll be lions, we'll be singing to them all.
