Heaven Knows

Here we go again, my lovely
Here we go again, I told you so
heavy on my head, the ivy
heavy on my head, so much to hold

washed onto your shore
with the lions still in tow
a hundred times before I tried to leave
a hundred times they followed me

heaven knows I need a home
oh, help me out
find me somewhere I can lay my head
heaven knows I need a home
oh, help me out
find me somewhere I can lay down...

here we go again, a cold breeze
here we go again, the darkness grows
heavy on my head, the stone keep
heavy on my head, the heart it holds

fell onto my sword,
seems the best way for us both
the hungry tide just swallows all it sees
the hungry tide has swallowed me

so you be the raft that rescues me
and I'll be the weight that makes us sink
how many souls do the lions need?
how many souls, how many souls?
even the hand of the hallowed queen
won't be enough to hold the sea
but where will I go when the lions sleep?
where will I go, where will I go?
