Tiger - Lyla Foy

Mostly in the night

We go riding when we can

Running like a boy

Useless fingers and arms

I want to be with you

On the beach and in the sea

There’s a tiger standing square in my way

I want to ride up on his back

Scrape my knees on rocky tracks

Tiger, if you’re there

Show me where you’re going to

I’ll follow Underground

I don’t get sick

When I ride at sea

So if the white waves

Are where you want to be

My brain is slowing down

Water down my brow

There’s a tiger standing square in my way

I want to ride up on his back

Scrape my knees on rocky tracks

Tiger, if you’re there

Show me where you’re going to

I’ll follow Underground
