Lyrics of song: Savannah

Savannah born in darkness
Confined by wire cages
Is offered a chance of freedom
By a tigress and her cubs
Freedom calls

And she doesn’t speak the language
But she suckles from her mother
Young lives emerging
Like the flowers in the spring
Emerging lives

And she stands atop the mountain
She roars like rolling thunder
Vibrates like fire
And it echoes down the canyon
I am here

Savannah is a hunter
Fast and strong and deadly
And she runs the prey down
To the waiting, patient tigress
Invisible

Silent in the shadow
Light and dark are merging
Coiled like a cobra
Explosive in her power
How she has

Speed and strength are merging
Claws are ripping, gripping
Teeth are seeking pressure
And the prey sinks down
It is over

Stands atop the mountain
Roars like rolling thunder
Vibrates like leopard fire
And it echoes down the canyon
I am here

Savannah is an auntie
To tiger cubs emerging
And she carries them so gently
In jaws of strength and power
She carries them

And she guards them in the morning
In the caves at midnight
A guardian and a hunter
A teacher and provider all in one
All in one

Thunder clouds are darkening
Flooded rain like furry
Tigers fleeing, swimming
Running, hurting, injured
Chaos reigns

Savannah darted falling
Seatao kills her swiftly
Sorrow overflowing
And the canyon stands empty
It is empty

No longer stands atop the mountain
Roars like rolling thunder
….
Savannah is gone
And the canyon stands empty
