The Panther Lyrics - The Well - Jennifer Warnes

I had a dream, woke up shaking 

The moon breaking through the tress 

And in the stillness of the evening 

I heard a rustling in the leaves 

And I saw a panther in the yard 

Moving slow across the ledge 

With silver eyes and a cool regard 

And hunger with a cutting edge 

Open the door, let it in 

This mystery you found 

It's all yours now 

Come lay the panther down 

So I called the eagle and the raven said 

My prayer to the sky with the moon as my witness 

I looked the panther in the eye and beheld 

His violent beauty 

That cut so deep and hard 

Through my civilized indifference 

And reckless disregard
