Sleeping Tiger Lyrics by Pete Astor

Spilt Milk

2016

[Verse 1]
This boat is full of holes
But I think we patched it up
I can’t find the answer
But I think I can make one up
Captain, he’s drunk again
And we’re in for a bumpy ride
But we’ve seen it all before
And I think it’s going to be alright
[Chorus]
But look behind you
Sleeping tiger
Everything has changed
You thought you knew
All the answers
You better think again
[Verse 2]
Sleeping tiger
Sleeping tiger
Sleeping tiger
Sleeping tiger
Better keep on moving
I think you know the way
Keep your hands upon the wheel
Close your eyes and pray
It’s getting very late now
And I think we better run
The dark is getting sleepy
And the stars are going out
One by one by one
One by one by one
One by one by one
One by one by one
One by one by one
One by one by one
One by one by one
[Chorus]
But look behind you
Sleeping tiger
Everything has changed
You thought you knew
All the answers
You better think again
[Verse 3]
Sleeping tiger
Sneaking up on you
Sleeping tiger
Tiny people argue
Sleeping tiger
The sound of laughter
Sleeping tiger
Just one afternoon
Sleeping tiger
Just a memory
Sleeping tiger
Just a memory
Just a memory
Just a memory
Just a memory
Just a memory
