Lion in my winter.
I´m a lion with no crown.

You wanna make me big man , a star on a screen.
Some kind of James Brown or something in between.

But when I ask for money you smother me in charms.
I can´t live on glory when your bendin´ both my arms.

I , I was a lion in winter.
And man I had friends for miles around.
I was a lion in my winter.
What good´s a lion Lord, without a crown.

You´re living in a cave man ,upon your marble throne.
You think you own the heavens, but you´ve got to be alone.
You know I prayed for sunshine, a woman with my name.
I don´t want to live man, you gave away the game.

I, I was a lion in winter.
And man I had friends for miles around.
I was a lion in my winter.
What good´s a lion Lord , without a crown.
