Judas Priest - Heart of a Lion

“We actually created that song here in the Valley - I think we were working at Chaton Studios when we were doing the TURBO sessions. We kind of kicked it around here, then we went to a bunch of other places, but that song was created here in the Valley, and it’s just one of these little diamonds that kind of escapes the pile. “In determining what gets on a record and what doesn’t, you just look and especially for a moment like this, you think of everything, and somebody goes, ’Whatever’ to this song you did, and this ’Heart Of A Lion’ track has just been always on the back burner, especially with the Priest fans: ’What is this song? We’ve heard the title, blah, blah...’, so now it’s time to include it.“ -Rob Halford-2004- lyrics: Crashing through the city streets Caught in the glare of the midnight sun I’ve got wings upon my feet But locked as I run Now you’re just a breath away From knocking me senseless to the ground No escape I hear you say You’re never safe - from a Heart of a lion My heart of a lion I close my eyes, I see your face It seems like I’m gripped within your spell Will I ever win this race? You’re moving in Hear my name cried from the sky There is a stillness that cuts the air In your hold I know that I Will never find the love - of a All around I hear the sound Of your mighty roar As I give I find that You are calling out for more All around I hear the sound Of your mighty roar As I give I find that You are crying Cold heart of a lion
