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 moustache 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 their's stop I will keep on loving 'Cos 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 Death cannot tear us apart Interlude: Well my smile is wider Than your's 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 4th 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 'Cos 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 Death 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 learnt A donkey, a mule, a lifetime of work In death 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 (let ring...) The sound of his cubs in death 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 (3x)
