Dark eyes come down on you
Whisper your name so sweet
Cold lies break from her lips
You don't feel the heat

There ain't no time to settle down
You're living on shakey ground
If that's what love is all about
There's only one way out

Somewhere on a distant street
You're caught between the tigers
If you're walking on fire don't burn your feet
You're caught between the tigers

Sharp words cut down your spine
They stand in circle strong
Be still in silent fear
For they'll soon be gone

They disappear before the dawn
Gonna disappear
Come on, come on

There ain't no people you can trust
This city's been stained with lust
If that's what life is all about
There's only one way out

Somewhere on a distant street
You're caught between the tigers
If you're walking on fire don't burn your feet
You're caught between the tigers

One way out

Somewhere on a distant street
You're caught between the tigers
If you're walking on fire don't burn your feet
You're caught between the tigers

Somewhere on a distant street
You're caught between the tigers
If you're walking on fire don't burn your feet
You're caught between the tigers
