Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Holy Diver

You've been down too long in the midnight sea

Oh, what's becoming of me?

Ride the tiger

You can see his stripes, but you know he's clean

Oh, don't you see what I mean?

[Chorus]

Gotta get away

Holy Diver, yeah

[Verse 2]

Got shiny diamonds

Like the eyes of a cat in the black and blue

Something is coming for you

Look out!

Race for the morning

You can hide in the sun till you see the light

Oh, we will pray it's alright

[Chorus]

Gotta get away

Get away

[Bridge]

Between the velvet lies

There's a truth that's hard as steel

The vision never dies

Life's a never ending wheel, yeah

[Verse 3]

Holy Diver

You're the star of the masquerade

No need to look so afraid

Jump, jump

Jump on the tiger

You can feel his heart, but you know he's mean

Some light can never be seen, yeah

[Verse 4]

Holy Diver

You've been down too long in the midnight sea

Oh, what's becoming of me?

No, yeah!

Ride the tiger

You can see his stripes, but you know he's clean

Oh, don't you see what I mean?

[Chorus]

Gotta get away

Get away

Gotta get away

Get away, yeah

[Outro]

Holy Diver

Sole survivor

You're the one who's clean

Holy Diver

Holy Diver

Holy Diver

Holy Diver

There's a cat in the middle coming after you, Holy Diver

Holy Diver

Holy Diver

Get away, get away, get away, c'mon
