Hunter/The Bee Lays Her Honey

The bee lays her honey in the body of the lion
You put both your hands inside
So sweet the honey
but what about the lion who died?

Who will watch the hunter while the hunter sleeps
Under a canopy of leaves
Who will protect you from the secrets
that you keep from me?

You can give me a riddle to test my love
You can throw me down into the river
But I know how to swim and how
to answer.

Hunter, hunter come with me
I will watch you while you sleep
I will take your loneliness
and make it sweet.

A Biblical breakup song.
(Judges 14)
