lyrics

Here in the jungle someone is crying
Here in the woods someone is sighing
And I heard a voice, and I saw you looking
And I turned around to stare in the tiger’s eyes

Here in the jungle nobody sleeps
And everyone's hungry for someone to speak
So somebody spoke like a bull that was roaring
With a crack in the throat, and a voice up from shadow land

Here in this strange world I hear whispers
Here in this moment there's nothing I cannot believe
Here in my four walls I was thinking
Looking for tigers, I might not like what I find
So I keep listening, and I keep thinking
I hear strange sounds somewhere in the dark

Here in the forest you can't see the trees
Here in the jungle we get what we bring
And everyone's looking but not very hard
For a pearl in the dirt on their own piece of shadow land

Here in this jungle everyone's tired
And someone was thinking that someone might triumph
So somebody spoke, but we hated the question
Leaving a voice adrift down in shadow land

Here in this strange world I hear whispers
Here in this moment there's nothing I cannot believe
Here in my four walls I was thinking
Looking for tigers, I might not like what I find
So I keep listening, and I keep thinking
I hear strange sounds somewhere in the dark
