Tiger's Eye

(album: The Exotic Sounds Of Courtney Jaye - 2010)

My how you have lost your cool
How did I become the fool?
Oh well your going down
Kicking dirt and wasting my time

Love like ours too close to call
Even diamonds have their flaws
Oh well, I'm going down
It's the end of suffering

You lost a diamond
And found a tiger's eye
And when you need her
I hope she walks on by
And leaves you lonely
Lonely

Just a semi precious jewel
Clouded judgement overruled
Oh well I'll never know
Why precious jewels I just can't find

You lost a diamond
And found a tiger's eye
And when you need her
I hope she walks on by
And leaves you lonely
Lonely

A million times passing by the right one
All polished up and clean
A million times but the damage is done
And now that it's time to leave

You lost a diamond
And found a tiger's eye
And when you need her

I hope she walks on by
And leaves you lonely
Lonely
And if I see you
You better cover your heart
If you get shut out
And left in the dark
You will be lonely
Lonely
