Beauty’s Beast

Hanging hope on garden roses Licking love from silver spoons On the run in tundras frozen Throwing howls at the moon No true way to leave the castle Though you came here on your own Sometimes you are a prisoner Sometimes you’re on the throne Though his rugged mange offends you His venom’s nothing new Still he keeps you close to him Beauty is a beast too
