the man who stole a leopard

do you know where we are?

i'm longing for the dark of our nocturnal life

it begins and ends with you

don't spill my secret

you were once running wild

hiding in the morning mist

game demands i make you mine

i thought that i could resist

but the leopard in you silently preyed on me

i made my way back home

i handled her with care

so elegant and sleek

i need her to be near

don't spill my secret

you were once running wild

hiding in the morning mist

game demands i make you mine

i thought that i could resist

but the leopard in you silently preyed on me

deserted by my friends

she's so much more than them

so now she's just for me

i watch her while she sleeps

don't spill my secret

since we were last outside

now that we've both been tamed

prisoners of our thoughts

don't spill my secret. today a man was taken from his apartment at the newjersey shore
