Lyrics › White Tiger

GIRLS, GIRLS, GIRLS (Ana Egge)

New York City was the place to be
Waiting on my man, waiting on sweet Jane
New York City was the place to be
Walking them Chelsea streets seeing who we could be

I been all around town
I been all around the world
Tell you what makes the world go ‘round
Girls, girls, girls

Me and my best friend Anthony
Walking them Chelsea streets
Seeing who we could see
Anthony would see the gay boys there
And I’d see the girls
Blue eyes and browns hair

I been all around town
I been all around the world
Tell you what makes the world go ‘round
Girls, girls, girls

New York City was the place to be
Waiting on my man, waiting on sweet Jane

I been all around town
I been all around the world
Tell you what makes the world go ‘round
Girls, girls, girls

WHITE TIGER (Ana Egge)

Keep your eyes on the tiger
Keed him let him be your guide
Teach him freedom that he might lead you
Through to the other side

Once you’re through
You can move your
Separate ways again
Once you’re through
You can rest your
Pretty head again

There’s a reason but you don’t need it
To get to the other side
Just keep moving and don’t stop soothing
The wounded tiger’s pride

Once you’re through
You can move your
Separate ways again
Once you’re through
You can rest your
Pretty head again

Keep your eyes on the tiger
Feed him let him be your guide
Teach him freedom that he might lead you
Through to the other side
Through to the other side

BE WITH YOU (Ana Egge/Alec Spiegelman)

The church in the mountains
The cave where we slept
The city underground
The true love we kept
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna to be with you

I took you to the movies
We sat in the dark
Listening together
I wrapped you in my arms
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you

The lines ‘cross the bridge
Seagulls in the snow
The sun on your skin
Fires on the coast
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you

YOU AMONG THE FLOWERS (Ana Egge/Alec Spiegelman)

You among the flowers
Paradise in full bloom
Thought you were another
First time I met
You remind me
Of a woman I once knew
You remind me
Of all the ways I wanted you
I wanted to
Be loved by you
Of all the ways I wanted you
I wanted to
Be loved by
You among the branches
Easy to see through
Thought you were another
First time I met
You remind me
Of a woman I once knew

You among the others
I picked you in full bloom
Thought you were another
First time I met
You remind me
Of a woman I once knew
You remind me
Of all the ways
I wanted you
I wanted to
Be loved by you
Of all the ways
I wanted you
I wanted to
Be loved by
You among the flowers
And all along the Avenue
Thought you were another
First time I met

You remind me
Of a woman I once knew
Of all the ways I wanted you
I wanted to be loved by you

DANCE AROUND THE ROOM WITH ME (Ana Egge/Mya Spalter)

Dance around the room with me
Start dancing and you’ll see
How it opens up, opens up your heart
How it opens up, opens up your heart

Reaching for the stars with you
And for the sun and moon
It opens up, opens up our hearts
How it opens up, opens up our hearts

If you’re feeling sad and blue
I could wrap my arms around you
It opens up, opens up our hearts
How it opens up, opens up our hearts

I could be a willow tree
You could come and swing on me
It opens up, opens up our hearts
How it opens up, opens up our hearts

It’s ok to be angry
It’s ok to be mad
It’s ok to feel sorry
It’s ok to feel sad

Dance around the room with me
Start dancing and you’ll see
How it opens up, opens up your heart
How it opens up, opens up your heart

I’M GOIN’ BOSSA NOVA (Ana Egge/Alec Spiegelman)

See the lady walking over
Lady with the healthy tan
I’m goin’ bossa nova
Goin’ with a three piece band
I’m goin’ bossa nova

Seeing how she puts her drink down
Seeing how she wants to dance
Seeing how she wants to show ya
Show you that she understands
I’m goin’ bossa nova

Corcovado
Mas que nada
Desafinado

Not a place to keep you sober
Not a place to tell your fans
I’m getting what I need the most of
‘Til they get the music canned

Corcovado
Mas que nada
Desafinado

I’m goin’ bossa nova
I’m goin’ bossa nova
I’m goin’ bossa nova
I’m goin’ bossa nova

LAST RIDE (Ana Egge)

I borrowed my uncle’s motorbike
And I headed North on Interstate 5
You were waiting and jumped on behind
I couldn’t wait to make you hold on tight

That was our last ride, you and I
That was our last ride

My truck broke down up near Big Sur
And we were going to be reunited with her
We hugged the coast in the open air
And we took our sweet time getting there

That was our last ride, you and I
That was our last ride

I was on the road and you
Were far away from home and we were
Still in love with the way
It was before I moved away

Past Salinas heading for I-5
We saw the carnival and the Ferris wheel lights
You always sat right by my side
I’m thinking about you tonight

That was our last ride, you and I
That was our last ride

I was on the road and you
Were far away from home and we were
Still in love with the way
It was before I moved away

That was our last ride, you and I
That was our last ride

WESTERN MOVIE (Ana Egge)

We were in an old western movie, you and I
Behind a low adobe wall in the last light

In the red hot
Tucson
Afternoon

You’re Tommy and I’m Audrey
I’m a misfit
But I am kind and I am a good friend

You can count on me
When the going gets tough
You can count on me
No matter what

Alice don’t live here no more, it’s ok
She got a new place, Tommy can show you the way

In the red hot
Tucson
Afternoon
In the red hot
Tucson
Afternoon light

We were in an old western movie, you and I

LET THE LIGHT IN (Ana Egge)

I was so messed up on you babe
I can’t believe you felt the same way
Open the window and let the light in
Starting today we can finally be friends

I thought I was the only one
Who knows where it was coming from
Open a window and set yourself free
I can’t believe you were messed up on me

Some kind of spell’s been broken down
Now I’m not afraid to be around you
Open the window and let the light in
Starting today we can finally be friends
Open the window and let the light in
