Holy Diver Lyrics by Pat Boone

In a Metal Mood: No More Mr. Nice Guy

1997

Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Yeah, yeah

Holy Diver
You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh what's becoming of me

Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh don't you see what I mean

Gotta get away
Holy Diver, yeah

Got shiny diamonds
Like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue
Something is coming for you
Look out!

Race for the morning
You can hide in the sun 'till you see the light
Oh we will pray it's all right

Gotta get away
Get away

Between the velvet lies
There's a truth that's hard as steel, yeah
The vision never dies
Life's a never ending wheel

Say, Holy Diver
You're the star of the masquerade
No need to look so afraid

Jump, jump, jump on the tiger
You can feel his heart but you know he's mean
Some light can never be seen

Holy Diver
You've been down too long in the midnight sea
Oh what's becoming of me
No, no!

Ride the tiger
You can see his stripes but you know he's clean
Oh don't you see what I mean

Gotta get away
Get away
Gotta get away
Get away, yeah

Holy Diver
Soul survivor
You're the one who's clean

Holy Diver
Holy Diver
You're the cat in the blue comin' after you

Holy Diver
Holy Diver
Yeah, all right
Get away, get away, get away
Holy Diver
Holy Diver
Holy Diver
