Give Me My Dog Back

Give Me My Dog Back

***

There was another woman

I met a long long time ago

She brought me happiness

Fresh falling snow

Oh, life slowly begins to fade

Changes colors with the trees 

I still got some living left

Before I'm falling leaves

So, I'm going to let go of my fears

Going to let go of my Tears

Going to let go of Lost Years

Gonna hold you near

Yeah, baby. It's true

Ever since I saw you

Didn't know what to do

Don't know now what to do

So I left behind my job

My wife, family and dog

Left all my things behind

Went out all the way

All for you

Even if I don't get to my destination

There will still be peace in my heart

At least, I went on this journey

I was not afraid to start

So, this is One Last Thing Before I Go

One thing in this life

I ever learned that I know

There's only one thing 

You can trust above

And that is called love

Do you still love me? 

Did you ever love me? 

Have you ever loved? 

Because I can't take 

Going up and down

Okay. No, I can't

I can't take it

All this going up and down

One minute you say, come

Next minute, you say, go

One minute. You say

I'm good next minute bad

Woman that you're kind 

Next minute, you hurt me

And I don't hurt you back

I know better than that

So, this is One Last Thing Before I Go

Now we have reached our end

One last thing to say

I am happy without you babe

But give me back my dog
