《The Lion》歌词

[00:00:01] The Lion - (电影《狮子》插曲)

[00:00:11] When my mother still was young her father died from too much wine

[00:00:15] His parents both were hunted in the jungle

[00:00:19] She moved into the city in her twenties met my father

[00:00:22] He courted her they fell in love and married

[00:00:26] On a tuesday april morning his brilliant brain stopped working

[00:00:30] My brothers mom and I all sat round crying

[00:00:34] When it occurred to me that I'd do well to lead our little pride

[00:00:38] And so I tried to find my roar and be a lion

[00:00:44] I always show my teeth when I am smiling

[00:00:48] I only say I love you when I'm sure

[00:00:51] Inside my gentle paws I've got some devastating claws

[00:00:55] And I'm learning what it means to really roar

[00:01:01] To protect them from the storm

[00:01:03] Keep them safe and keep them warm

[00:01:05] Music was the fire that I shared

[00:01:09] It taught me when in fear to be open and sincere

[00:01:12] Because sometimes being brave is being scared

[00:01:16] At the risk of getting burned I tried to guide the pride to learn

[00:01:20] To find their own ideas of fire and fan the flame

[00:01:24] With other stuff to do and see they left the music all to me

[00:01:28] The things that made us lions were not the same

[00:01:34] I always show my teeth when I am smiling

[00:01:37] I only say I love you when I'm sure

[00:01:41] Inside my gentle paws I've got some devastating claws

[00:01:45] And I'm learning what it means to really roar

[00:01:51] When all the cubs grew up and we were spread around the earth

[00:01:55] I found one day that I'd grown very sick

[00:01:58] My bones were filled with holes my belly hung in rolls

[00:02:02] And I was bald where once my mane was thick

[00:02:06] I slept and was ashamed I was quiet I was tamed

[00:02:10] Then they came and stayed and helped me heal inside

[00:02:14] Though I had to learn once more to be a lion without a roar

[00:02:18] It's not the roar that makes the lion it's the pride

[00:02:24] I always show my teeth when I a

[00:02:28] I only say I love you when I'm sure

[00:02:31] Inside my gentle paws I've got some devastating claws

[00:02:35] And I'm learning what it means to really roar

[00:02:39] I always show my teeth when I am smiling

[00:02:43] I only say I love you when I'm sure

[00:02:47] Inside my gentle paws I've got some devastating claws

[00:02:50] And I'm learning

[00:02:53] And I'm learning what it means to really roar
