Lyrics

In those days we were lions
In those days we were kings
It's not one thing or the other
It's all things all at once
Oh, I will love you better than him (Oh-ah-ah)
Oh, I will love you better than him (Oh-ah-ah)
Oh, I will love you better than him (Oh-ah-ah)
Oh, I will love you better than him (Oh-ah-ah)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh
These wings ain't for flyin'
These wings are just for show
It's years since I've been flyin'
I am down to the earth
Oh, I will love you better than him (Oh-ah-ah)
Oh, I will love you better than him (Oh-ah-ah)
Oh, I will love you better than him (Oh-ah-ah)
Oh, I will love you better than him (Oh-ah-ah)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh
In those days we were lions
In those days we were kings
