Niki & The Dove Mother Protect Lyrics

I used to bend with trees, I have a call
I close my eyes and wait for the echo
And you came in a hurricane, I watched you in the dark
Never seen nothing like it, don't wanna smash the spark

I used to follow you, follow you for days
I slept beside you, just shadows away
I watched you by the fire, your hands was all aglow
Under the spell of a circle, I let my face show

Oh my heart is like an eagle,
I love to fall from the sky
It's so beautiful,
I see right through the water's edge
And I love your hands,
I let them lead me into the cage
So tender but your body was warm, so frail, But your eyes like mine,
The color of ice

You can't keep me down, I am done, I am furious
Fear the lioness, paint her face black and golden
You can't keep me down, I am done,
I am furious (you're my weakest part) Fear the lioness,
paint her face black and golden (you're my weakest
part)
You can't keep me down, I am done, I am furious (so
strong)
Fear the lioness, paint her face black and golden
You can't keep me down, I am done,
I am furious (I'm so strong,
so strong) Fear the lioness, paint her face black and
golden
