Lyrics

a stray dog
briefly seeks shelter,
wet from the rain
and disheveled by the world
I ask him if he's hungry -
he says no, then eats anyway;
just as he says
that he won't be staying,
then he does,
at least until the rain stops
he does not want to owe me,
so, he rewards me with a tune
that came to his mind
as he was roaming the streets,
just as stray dogs do
I'll hum it
until the weather changes again,
knowing that he will come back
and we’ll start over,
with a shelter and a song,
a shelter and a song -
the story of two cowards
who never talk about
how badly they both wish
they could have a real home
with a shelter and a song
a shelter and a song
with a shelter and a song
a shelter and a song
the story of two cowards
who never talk about
how badly they both wish
they could have a real home
