Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
If the elephants have past lives yet are destined to always remember It's no wonder how they scream Like you and I they must have some temper And I am dreaming of them on the plains dirtying up their beds Watching for some kind of rain to cool their hot heads And how dare that you send me that card when I'm doing all that I can do You are forcing me to remember when all I want is to just forget you If the tiger shall protect her young then tell me how did you slip by All my instincts have failed me for once I must have somehow slept the whole night And I am dreaming of them with their kill tearing it all apart Blood dripping from their lips and teeth sinking in too hearts And how dare that you say you will call when you know I need some peace of mind If you had to take sides with the animals won't you do it with one who is kind? If the hawks in the trees need the dead if you're living you don't stand a chance You can lie there and say you are fed but there are only two ends to this dance You can flee with your wounds just in time or lie there as he feeds Watching yourself ripped to shreds and laughing as you bleed So for those of you falling in love keep it kind keep it good keep it right Throw yourself in the midst of danger but keep one eye open at night
