Liner Notes

#acousticrock #acousticonetake
A day late for the skirmish.
This is a lyric from a skirmish on October 1, which I think must have had something to do with personal branding or look or visual identity. The title is a reference to my distinctive blue head scarf style.
Today I rewrote a few lines at the ends of the verses to make them rhyme, then added music.

Lyrics

[1]
Chase the shooting stars
Stand in the rain
Life is a winding road
Joy and then pain

You have to be practical
But you have to be crazy
You’ll be shaking your head at the world
A lot of that lately

[chorus]
I’ll be waiting at the turnstiles
Standing like an outsider
I might not look like my profile
But they call me
They call me
They call me
The midnight tiger

[2]
Don’t expect me to find you
I don’t have that kind of vision
But to move when it’s time to
I see that with precision

It takes too long to get started
It’s like moving a mountain
A lifetime I’ve waited
Now I’m hearing the count-in

[chorus]
I’ll be waiting at the turnstiles
Standing like an outsider
I might not look like my profile
But they call me
They call me
They call me
The midnight tiger
The midnight tiger
The midnight tiger
The midnight tiger
