Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Back when you were just a pup
Runnin' around
Down on the streets of Mexico
Only rain to fill your cup
Stars for a roof
And a stone for a pillow
[Chorus]
Then you came to us
A creature from the wild
But you behaved just
Like a perfect child
And you saved us for a while
[Verse 2]
Back when you were just a boy
Living in a garbage bin
Behind the motor inn
Oh, with a thorn in your paw
The sweetest heart
With a worm inside of it
[Chorus]
And you came to us
And started a new life
And you looked at us
And everything was fine
And you saved us for a while
[Chorus]
Then you came to us
A creature from the wild
But you behaved just
Like a perfect child
And you saved us for a while
And you saved us for a while
