I am a grizzled Steppenwolf now but I am your Steppenwolf no matter what
Hard traveling unraveling winding Down dark and dusty roads in parallel But when we see light it will be blinding As heaven has the last best laugh on hell
You reach out I reach back and we both feel By faith if not by sight the hope to heal
Stuck in separate nightmares yet always Together in one shared and shining dream Through all these needy nights and lonely days Nightmares look real but are not what they seem
We have always been together somehow Never and always never more than now
We both went crazy a long time ago Or so they tell us in this crazy place But I went crazy for you as you know Your golden skin and your lioness face
If this is madness then let madness be Bond bed and daily bread for you and me
If you are a dream and I wake and die Alone I will have loved you nonetheless But I think we can make it if we try In a blue moon as wolf and lioness
Forget what rats and weasels might have said We hunted will howl when hunters lie dead
So come out tonight and howl at the moon With me my golden girl my fantasy They think they have us cornered now but soon Your lioness eyes will open to see:
I am a grizzled Steppenwolf now but I am your Steppenwolf no matter what
