about

A song about missing my beautiful dog, while working away up North

lyrics

How much longer will it be 'till I come back to you?
How much longer will it be 'till I can say to you
that I love you?

"49 days," I say to thee, though I know that you don't hear.
Dates and times and numbers don't mean nothin' to your ears,
when you're down and blue.

I know it was your birthday, I know that you had cake -
it was sweet, but loneliness was mixed in with the taste.

And if I was a little fish, born in the calmest bay,
I'd swim against the lonesome tide, to have been there that day.

And if there was a mountain, and I had no legs
I'd crawl to the top just to kiss you on your head.

But they got me locked down in chains that I chose,
they give me bread and dangle roast beef right under my nose,
my precious boy!

But if I had a hammer made of gold and pearls,
I'd smash these bars; you and me would live free as the birds,
and fearless as bees!

And 49 days 'till I see thee, for three weeks, then no more.
Three weeks flies in the bat of an eye, but one day I,
I will slam the door, on all that keeps me apart from you.
