Lion / My Love Affair with Marriage (From "My Love Affair with Marriage")

by Storm Large

Lyrics : Signe Baumane
Music : Kristian Sensini
The light finally breaks.
And lets the butterflies out.
The sound of war recedes.
My heart is ready for peace.
I feel so small before this daunting task
when Love takes off its confusing mask.
I see what love could possibly be
if I had courage to break with conformity.
I' d refuse to engage in this timeless war
of who will lose or who could win more.
I' d put a stop to this time-worn song
of how to Love and what' s right and what's wrong.
I dance on the graves of my many mistakes.
Their cold shiny stones they teach me new moves.
Tip top TIP tip pity tup
I'm moving forward, I'm moving up.
Tip top TIP tip pity tap
I'm moving forward with my new map.
Tip top TIP tip pity tup
I' m moving forward, I'm moving up.
Tip top TAP tip pity tip
I'm moving forward, going on a trip.
The World is too big to care for my plight.
I search, I bargain, I plea, and I fight
to fit the world into a room with a view
and share it with someone.
Could it be you?
I dance on the graves of my many mistakes.
Their cold shiny stones they teach me new moves.
Tip top TIP tip pity tup
I'm moving forward, I'm moving up.
Tip top TIP tip pity tap
I'm moving forward with my new map.
Tip top TIP tip pity tup
I' m moving forward, I'm moving up.
Tip top TAP tip pity tip
I'm moving forward, going on a trip.
Nah-nah
I'll be a Lion, I'll be a force.
I'll let my voice out 'til it is hoarse.
My spirit will join the chorus of others.
We will be sisters, we will be brothers.
In the song of parity
love will be a thrill
on the shared ground
of a shared will.
I dance on the graves of my many mistakes.
Their cold shiny stones teach me new moves.
Tip top TIP tip pity tup
I'm moving forward, I'm moving up.
Tip top TIP tip pity tap
I'm moving forward with my new map.
Tip top TIP tip pity tup
I' m moving forward, I'm moving up.
Tip top TAP tip pity tip
I'm moving forward, going on a trip.
I dance to a fresh tune
known only by a few.
Who else knows it?
Could it be...
You?
