Tom Cochrane - Paper Tigers lyrics

Keep your powder dry and warm Thru the coming darkest storm All the fear that's sent your way Thru your eyes you might wash away When you can Still your lantern's strong and bright Even thru the darkest night All those paper tigers All their lies they might have sold you Might be wasted on One so young that you're old again She walks out thru the wind and the rain uh-huh They can't give you all those things No pot of gold no big bra** ring Stay on the road for the night has come Perhaps at dawn we will be like one again All those paper tigers All the lies they might have been sold you Might be wasted on One so young that you're old again Sylvia walks out thru the wind and the rain uh-huh Still the shock rips you thru every nerve In the bell jar nothing can be heard I would walk with you I would talk with you I would do anything that would get you thru Draw the line for you Take the fifth for you I would stand on a bridge and jump off it too All those paper tigers All the lies they might have told you Might be wasted on One so young that you're old again All those paper tigers All the lies your mother told you Might be wasted on One so young that you're old again She walks out thru the wind and the rain uh-huh ...Dedicated to Slyvia Plath
