Forever and a Dog - Craig J. Hansen

I knew a man
He was nothing
Nothing special
Had a job and a dog
But he thought he would live forever.

He would watch the ages come and go
Like seasons of the year
He would witness it all
Because he would live forever.

Chorus
And when he died
The sun rose high
The world went on
Even though he was gone

The seas and the planes
Did not call out his name
Because he was gone
And nothing last forever.

That dog
It’s not a good dog
It barks all night
And eats like a horse.
And it feels to me like it will live forever.

Chorus

I knew a man
He was a good man
But nothing special
He gave me his dog before he died
To remember him forever.
