I saw this old dead dog in the road
It reminded me of someone I know
Just a flash of a forgotten dream
Where i was looking in the mirror at me
I guess we’re all terrified of the future
Where we’re all sat at computers
She said I need to get some cleaner air
Or at least run a comb through my long lank hair
But when I’m all alone I always think of her

There’s this lady
Who visits my house
I guess I could just get her kicked out
She’s been hanging here now for weeks
But it makes me happy when we sit down and speak
Together about when we were young
Every summer was filled with the brightest sun
The flowers that I put in her hair
I noticed it is something she still wears
And when I’m all alone I always think of her

And when I look you in the eye
I hope my feelings don’t show
I wouldn’t like you to know
That I’m still in love
I think I’d rather be a 100,000 miles from home
Without a papa or a rolling stone
Or a telephone
I’d be completely alone
And not hurt you anymore

You’ve heard it all before
How can I make it on my own
