Easy Tiger (Live)

[Verse 1]
Her and I met in 85'
Bleach  blonde hair and dark green eyes
It  was bright but it don't burn anymore
Nothing'll change come Christmas time
You can stay where you want at night
Just  promise when love comes knocking you'll answer the door

[Chorus]
Easy,  tiger, don't you cry
People gonna love you, then they're gonna leave you
That's  just the way of life
Don't blame your mother, 'least we tried
People gonna love you, then they're gonna leave you
That's just the way of life

[Verse 2]
The  machine beeps less frequently
They've gone to find out what that means
It was months, now it may only be hours
They say, "Ma'am, your son was far from a coward
Damn near first one into the tower"
Come Mother's Day, she'll be bringing him the flowers

[Chorus]
Easy, tiger, don't you cry
People gonna love you, then they're gonna leave you
That's just the way of life
A lovely mother left behind
People gonna love you, then they're gonna leave you
Wish that I could tell you why
Hmm-mmm, hmm-mmm

[Verse 3]
"At least you know you loved the boy
That's why you feel your world destroyed"
His father replied from the other side of the door
Not his area of expertise, no plenty-of-fish analogies
He said, "You'll have to eat eventually, sport"

[Chorus]
Easy, tiger, don't you cry
People gonna love you, then they're gonna leave you
That's just the way of life
Another lover you'll come to find
People gonna love you, then they're gonna leave you
That's just the way of life
People gonna love you, then they're gonna leave you
Wish that I could tell you why
People gonna love you, then they're gonna leave you
All the damn time

[Spoken]
Thank you so much
