I’ve seen love move like a lion
Roaming her kingdom and basking in glory
I’ve known love to be like a dragon
A mythical half-thought from a children’s story

I bore the view of her crossing the sea
The captain of her sinking ship, leaving last
I saw the crew of heartbreak and duty
Despite all the sinking, raising the mast

I’ve heard love calling, roaring my name
Calling to attention my part
The lion dragon captain, one and the same
Roaring soaring sinking in the depths of my heart

My love has conquered all of these things, yes it’s true
That is except one, and my darling, it’s you
