King Charles - Ivory Road lyrics

You're the nose on my bullet The trigger on my gun You're the sandbank in the ocean Oxygen in my blood You're the fastest of the fish You're the prickliest pear You're a chameleon in the night You're the Sahara's sun glare You're my mind's rest You're the strings on my guitar You're the wax in my mustache The keys to my car You're the magical mermaid's Hollowed illusion You cool them, fool them And they hope so much And you let them down And you watch from your rock And your heart beats fast As you watch theirs stop I will keep on loving 'Cause I believe in love I don't mind dying If you follow me up Your victory's your defeat Your head above your heart Only the brave surrender d**h cannot tear us apart Well, my smile is wider Than yours when we meet And the winter is colder For me underneath And I know that you glow From the inside out You can keep it for yourself And I'll go without You are the fire And I'm the chimney You'll burn away And I'll choke on your memory All the words, my sense You're the poet to my pen You're the dream that brings The morning sadness Start the day storm in my head Well, you're the Oscar Wilde Short stories in my bookcase You're positively fourth street Isolated in my iTunes You're the word in the dictionary That I can't spell Can't describe, can't put in a sentence But use all the time Your own pair of trousers Look better on me The boots of Spanish leather And the bottom of the sea Every symbol of love That doesn't relate to a meaning Every feeling, every sensation Only real when I'm dreaming I will keep on loving 'Cause I believe in love I don't mind dying If you follow me up Your victory's your defeat Your head above your heart Only the brave surrender d**h cannot tear us apart Well, I wish we were animals Free of loves games I wish we were snails With really big shells I wish I was a lion I'd be king of the wild I'd command all the beasts To carry you when you're tired I'm the elephant in the circus Oh, you're my trainer You'd never let me go But if you did I would stay here In love there is freedom But it must be returned There must be sacrifice Love must be learned A donkey, a mule A lifetime of work In d**h he rests His head from his reins No burden to bare But work left him lame And the lion on the mountain Chased from his pride His lioness stolen, his rival survives The sound of his cubs in d**h are dim He knows his world well No pain can defeat him Wild horses in the wilderness Will know no journey home Well, my love is locked in chains The lion walks alone Oh, the lion walks alone Nature is cruel But he knows it's his home He to his demons And you to your own Please let me stand by you And we'll conquer them all We will conquer them all Oh, I will conquer them all Oh, I will conquer them all Oh, I will conquer them all
