I was hungry and I was cold, had a father far too old
|
Couldn't make it to the place he'd like to be
|
In a treetrunk in the park, he was living in the dark
|
Keeping other dogs like him for company
|
|
In the evening I'd go down to a nightclub in the town
|
Try to get some bread to make another way
|
Back to the park I'd go, dig him out of the snow
|
You know he's lived a thousand years day to day
|
|
Well, the days get shorter and the nights get longer
|
And you never learn to know
|
If you love one another, could you look at each other
|
Could it ever really show
|
And at this moment in time you couldn't make up your mind
|
Now could you ever understand
|
Are you following me just like Moses to the sea
|
Do you think I'll give you freedom in the end
|
When I'm long dead and gone will your love for me go on
|
Will I be the one you run to in the end
|
And all my dogs need a friend
|
|
It was a quarter to three in the summer of '73
|
When I heard somebody call outside my door
|
Said "Are you friend or are you foe"
|
He looked up and he said "no, but I'd like to come inside and know you more"
|
|
Well the days get shorter and the nights get longer
|
And you never learn to know
|
If you love one another, could you look at each other
|
Could it ever really show
|
And at this moment in time you couldn't make up your mind
|
Now could you ever understand
|
Are you following me just like Moses to the sea
|
Do you think I'll give you freedom in the end
|
When I'm long dead and gone will your love for me go on
|
Will I be the one you run to in the end
|
And all my dogs need a friend
|
|
Need a friend
|
Need a friend
|
