Ah caught you smiling at me, That's the way it should be,<br />Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine.<br /><br />Ah all the good times we had, I sang love songs so glad<br />Always smiling, never sad, so fine.<br /><br />[Chorus]<br />As we walk down the country lanes, I'll be singing a song,<br />Hear me calling your name.<br />Hear the wind within the trees, Telling Mother Nature 'bout you and me.<br /><br />Well if the sun shines so bright, Or on our way it's darkest night<br />The road we choose is always right, so fine.<br /><br />Ah can your love be so strong When so many loves go wrong<br />Will our love go on and on...<br /><br />[Chorus]<br /><br />My, my la de la come on now it ain't too far,<br />Tell your friends all around the world,<br />Ain't no companion like a blue eyed merle.<br />Come on now well let me tell you,<br />What you're missing, missing, 'round them brick walls.<br /><br />So of one thing I am sure, It's a friendship so pure,<br />Angels singing all around my door, so fine.<br />Yeah, ain't but one thing to do Spend my natural life with you,<br />You're the finest dog I knew, so fine.
