Jimmy Buffett Wondering Where The Lions Are Lyrics

Wondering Where The Lions Are Lyrics

Sun's up, uh huh, looks okay 

The world survives into another day 

And I'm thinking about eternity 

Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me 



I had another dream about lions at the door 

They weren't half as frightening as they were before 

But I'm thinking about eternity 

Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me 



Walls windows trees, waves coming through 

You be in me and I'll be in you 

Together in eternity 

Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me 



Up among the firs where it smells so sweet 

Or down in the valley where the river used to be 

I got my mind on eternity 

Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me 



And I'm wondering where the lions are... 

I'm wondering where the lions are... 



Huge orange flying boat rises off a lake 

Thousand-year-old petroglyphs doing a double take 

Pointing a finger at eternity 

I'm sitting in the middle of this ecstasy 



Young men marching, helmets shining in the sun, 

Polished as precise like the brain behind the gun 

(Should be!) they got me thinking about eternity 

Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me 



And I'm wondering where the lions are... 

I'm wondering where the lions are... 



Freighters on the nod on the surface of the bay 

One of these days we're going to sail away, 

Going to sail into eternity 

Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me 



And I'm wondering where the lions are... 

I'm wondering where the lions are...
