Lion In WinterThe Bee Gees

"Lion In Winter" — from This Is Where I Came In (2001). Their final album's most dramatic track.

Lion in my winter.
I'm a lion with no crown.
You wanna make me big man , a star on a screen.
Some kind of James Brown or something in between.
But when I ask for money you smother me in charms.
I can't live on glory when your bendin' both my arms.
I , I was a lion in winter.
And man I had friends for miles around.
I was a lion in my winter.
What good's a lion Lord, without a crown.
You're living in a cave man ,upon your marble throne.
You think you own the heavens, but you've got to be alone.
You know I prayed for sunshine, a woman with my name.
I don't want to live man, you gave away the game.
I, I was a lion in winter.
And man I had friends for miles around.
I was a lion in my winter.
What good's a lion Lord , without a crown.
(repeat last verse and fade out )
