Gary Hurlstone Vanished (Like the Blue Tiger) lyrics

Like a Blue Tiger caught by his tail
That caged bird still waits for May
Not sure if he will see her again
Like a Blue Tiger out on his own, waiting I'm hunting alone
Not sure if we will see her again

Over the smoke and sea, behind the factories
Why must I always be, forever waiting?
For that dream to pass by
The dream that our lives just vanished

We took the Harty-Ferry. It goes nowhere
Swear I won't go there again
Not such an ordinary girl from a Medway town
When I got lost, and we all get lost, when I got lost, she got found, found, found


Like a Blue Tiger caught by his tail,
This caged bird still waits for May
And I don't think I'm gonna see her again no, no
Like a Blue Tiger out on his own, waiting, hunting alone
And I don't think we're going to see her again
Over the smoke and sea...

And we took the Harty Ferry
And it went nowhere
Swear I won't go there again
The Swale, the church, the people were not all that I wanted
But what I want, but what I want, but what I want wasn't there
Ooh, if life could always be like this
