Pacing gently summer wind

The king stares softly to the sky

Will he ever see his home again

Deep from his heart he starts to cry

As his songs hit the air and young hearts are awake

Soon they join the chorus sharing all his ache

There’s a lifetime out there somewhere.

Somewhere in the dark

And summer’s on the lions song

Sung from Cleveland Park

And the high school kids ignore it they have their own tune

They’re just showing off the speakers in their ride

I know what I’m sayin’, I grew up too soon

And youth goes hand in hand with foolish pride

As their song hits the air and young hearts start to break

The lions join in the chorus sharing all their ache

There’s a lifetime out there somewhere.

Somewhere in the dark

And summer’s on, the lions song

Sung from Cleveland Park

In Cleveland Park trees breathe a sigh of all the summers gone

Skeletons in wintertime, they sing the lions song

There’s a lifetime out there somewhere.

Somewhere in the dark

And summer’s on, the lions song

Sung from Cleveland Park
