The Year Of The Leopard

The assurance of the rounding and the breaking of the waves
Long since past a discreet hour
The love of the news brings stories a flowing
And you're showing off as you do know that I am hooked

The beauty in the melody, the rhythm of your words
The beauty in the melody

It won't be so easy, this year of the leopard
For all I have learned, I cannot meet your eye

You offered all and I turned you down
Now I feel like such a fool
You could have made my summer
I should have leapt upon you

The beauty in the melody, the rhythm of your words
The beauty in the melody

It won't be so easy, this year of the leopard
