We were drivin' to the river with the roof down
The moon was out, the moon
And the stars were singing whispers
of a newfound
Our love was out, alive
You lit a sparkler for the fifth of November
We drew our shapes in light
Like a map of forever

We were tigers, little tigers
Runnin' in the dead of night
Little tigers

And in seconds, we descended to the slipstream
Your hand in mine, so tight
We were speeding past the ethers of what could be
The time was right, oh, the time was right
(To fly)

We were tigers, little tigers
Runnin' in the dead of night
We were tigers, two little tigers
Runnin' in the dead of night
Little tigers

There's somethin' about you
It's easy to say
I could spend all my nights beside you
Forever and a day
So throw out the history
Throw it all away
We're the little tigers runnin'
Runnin' away
Away, away, away, away, away, away
