lyrics

Grey Tigers are Running by Tom Watts

It's been a lot of years since I was almost seventeen.
I've learned a lot of lessons still don't know what they all mean.
Some say "serve yourself" and some say "pray to God on high"
And some are only trying to get by.

Grey tigers are running and I'm holding to the tail
Daylight will be coming in the morning.


As I look around I find it hard to stay aloof.
A million kinds of people know a million kinds of truth.
And fully half those people are quite sure they've got it right,
And so they choose up sides to fight the fight.


The flames are fanned by those who stand and rant up on the stage.
They speak to you of freedom but their aim is to enrage.
The people come because they're lost and asking what to do.
Appoint themselves a judge to bring the gavel down on you.

Grey tigers are running and I'm holding to the tail.
Daylight will be coming in the morning.


You can hold your hand up you can say what's on your mind
The seed's already planted and it's growing on the vine.
All I know is all I know is all that I can do.
For me, I'm only singing but I offer it to you.

Grey tigers are running and I'm holding to the tail.
Daylight will be coming in the morning.
