  • Текст песни Tom Cochrane - Paper Tigers



    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 brass 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
