Goodbye Tiger Songtext
von Richard Clapton

"Jeez", he said
"The bands don′t seem to play 'round here no more
And Saturday night just ain′t the same
I wish everything was back the way it used to be before"
Now I sit here and push my long hair back behind my ears
The face I used to hide behind, is now becoming ghostly with the years

Goodbye, Tiger
Chasing those dolce vita times
Somehow you seem to have left me far behind
But you can hear me whisper on the night line
"Goodbye, Tiger
Goodbye, Tiger
Goodbye"
Well, that's alright


I keep shifting 'round
I wear the dust of many foreign streets
Drifting and shifting with the wind
Now this same wind is howling
Like a cyclone here inside
And I see I′ve got nothing left to hide
Nobody′s gonna take the stage tonight
So I sit here anyway, and sigh

Goodbye, Tiger
Chasing those dolce vita times
Somehow you seem to have left me far behind
But you can hear me whisper on the night line
"Goodbye, Tiger
Goodbye, Tiger
Goodbye"
Well, that's alright

And one of these days, sun gonna shine, I think it′s gonna work out fine, yeah
That's alright, my child
