Tim Akkerman - Lions Don't Cry

The savannah's warm, the sun still out
The pride has gone, but is still around
I look at them and then I smile again

I'm moving on, I can't stand still
The cubs are fine, or in time they will
see that times like these were for the best
And hardship times, well, they never last

I had it all figured out
But gotten wrong, what it was about
I got the what, I got the why
But lions don't cry The hunt's still off, it's been a while
I found the time and space to smile
I've no need right now for a new lioness
A lion's never feeling helpless

I had it all figured out
But gotten wrong, what it was about
I got the what, I got the why
But lions don't cry

I had it all figured out
But gotten wrong, what it was about
I never stopped to ask you why
You know, I don't want no reply
The time has come to say goodbye
And now you know, you know why

Lions don't cry
Lions don't cry
Lions don't cry
