Listen To The Lion

Van Morrison

And all my love come down
All my love come tumblin' down
All my love come tumblin' down
All my love come tumblin' down 

Oh, listen listen
To the lion
Oh, listen listen listen
To the lion...
Inside of me
Oh, oh, oh 

And I shall search my soul
I shall search my very soul
And I shall search my very soul
I shall search my very so-o-oul 

For the lion
For the lion
For the lion
For the lion...
Inside of me
Oh, oh, yeah 

And all my tears have flown
All my tears like water flown
And all my tears like water flown
All my tears like-a water flown 

For the lion
For the lion
For the lion
For the lion...
Inside of me 

(growling, scatting, etc.) 

Listen to the lion (repeated 14 times) 

(more scatting) 

And we sailed, and we sailed...
And we sailed, and we sailed...
And we sailed, and we sailed...
... sailed to Caledonia 

And we sailed, and we sailed, 
And we sailed, and we sailed, and we sailed...
Away from Denmark
Way up to Caledonia
Away from Denmark
Way up to Caledonia 

And we sailed, and we sailed, and we sailed...
All around the World
And we sailed..., and we sailed..., and we sailed...
Looking for a brand new start 

And we sailed...
And we sailed, and we sailed...
All around the World
... a brand new start 

Looking for a brand new start
Looking for a brand new start
Looking for a brand new start 

And we sailed, and we sailed, and we sailed...
And we sailed...
Away from the Golden Gate
Way up to the New York City
