Handsome reader reads through the dappled shadows

Light was pouring down upon the stepping stones

Felt like morning coming for his throne

I don't know why but it looked like a tiger striped sky

Half the world was pulling on his colors

As nights turned into day to the hours

A glow was coming down, coming down

I don't know why but if felt like a tiger striped sky

Tell me why

I'm underneath the tiger striped sky

Oh tell me why

I'm underneath the tiger striped sky

Tired of seeing adventures on café walls

Think I'll take a turn from the known road

Think I'll write a tale of my own

I'm going southbound to where the ocean's flirting with the coast

Tell me why

I'm underneath the tiger striped sky

Oh tell me why

I'm underneath the tiger striped sky

So I'll be giving up my stripes

Be painting with new colors

Beginning with dove-white

I'll be giving up my stripes

Be painting with new colors

Beginning with dove-white
