Tiger

Tiger - Emeli Sandé Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Drop all the pills Doctor told us to take

They say we're dreaming, but I swear we're awake

Whenever you leave all the colours fade

So I'm here holding on cause I'm tired of grey



[Refrain]

Are you sticking around?

Are you sticking around?



[Verse 2]

You build a plane, and I'll build a boat

If we drop all the silver, I swear we can float

Wasn't born for the money, so I spent it quick

Bank says I'm poor, but I'm feeling rich



[Refrain]

Are you sticking around?

Are you sticking around?



[Chorus]

Hey there, honey

You came along and stopped me running

I'm feeling like me, back on my feet

I'm a tiger again

Hey there, honey

You came along and stopped me running

I'm feeling like me, back on my feet

I'm a tiger again



[Verse 3]

Tattoos on our arms so everybody can see

If they're messing with you, then they're messing with me

They think we're crazy, crazy and blind

But if I can see you, then the rest I don't mind



[Refrain]

Are you sticking around?

Are you sticking around?



[Verse 4]

Wash out the glass and pop the champagne

Whenever I can, I celebrate

Because it's not everyday you get a feeling so brave

Not everyone gets the chance to be saved



[Refrain]

Are you sticking around?

Are you sticking around?



[Chorus]

Hey there, honey

You came along and stopped me running

I'm feeling like me, back on my feet

I'm a tiger again

Hey there, honey

You came along and stopped me running

I'm feeling like me, back on my feet

I'm a tiger again
