Tiger Striped Sky

Pouncing ray to ray to through the dappled shadows,
 Light was pouring down upon the stepping-stones,
 It felt like morning coming for its throne,
 But I don't know why it looked like a tiger striped sky.
 ♪
 Well, half the world was pulling on its colours,
 As night surrendered day to the hours,
 Glow was coming down, coming down,
 I don't know why but it felt like a tiger striped sky.
 ♪
 Tell me why I'm underneath this tiger striped sky!
 ♪
 Tired of seeing adventures on a café wall,
 I think I'll take a turn from the known road,
 I think I'll write a tale of my own,
 I'm going southbound to where the ocean's flirting with the coast.
 ♪
 I'll be giving up my stripes,
 Be painting with new colours beginning with dove white!
