Love Tigers

When I saw sister Sally just walking away

from the things you do and the games you play

it broke my heart.

When you wrote that letter that said, “go get her;

I’m not waiting here anymore,”

I was confused.

When I kissed old Mindy down in sunshine city

just 'cause there was nothing else to do,

she shot me through and through,

like she said that she would do, but

You, I have all this love for

you. You paint my heart blood blue,

and I’m losing me inside of you.

I have so much love for you,

so much love for you.

When I lit this candle the wick was tall,

tall enough to tip and fall,

razing the room

And Your love tiger just tears me apart,

but the tiger don’t know when the tiger's caught.

Isn’t that true?

And this old house is getting small

While I lay around and climb the walls

Just like a man shot through and through

A heart sleeve that you can see through but

You, I have all this love for

you. You paint my heart blood blue,

and I’m losing me inside of you.

I have so much love for you,

so much love for you.

When I quit working my hands to bone,

I'm going to sit right down by the telephone

waiting for you;

And old sister Sally just wound up getting

her own special ticket to muscle-car heaven,

taking you too.

Now the mirror in the hall has bloodshot eyes

like no warning shot, just a sad surprise;

and I’m wearing right on through

like I might just disappear with….

You, I have all this love for

you. You paint my heart blood blue,

and I’m losing me inside of you.

I have so much love for you,

so much love for you.
