Even given forgiveness, something still ain’t right
Even asking your blessing haunts me every night
I cry into a dream
And I walk those country roads, so lost and on all-fours
And I know now, without a doubt, you suffered
Two One-Bee, can you mend my friend for me?
Then the three of us can hunt for others
Robot, man, canine- blood brothers
Yea, the three of us can hunt for others
And we’ll travel sea to sea, by sun and by the moon
Guided by our hearts in hopes of finding them all soon
And we’ll get them to their feet
To loving arms and warm abodes
We’ll heal the dogs that die alone along those country roads
We’ll heal the dogs that die alone along those country roads
Distant wimpers- our mission, something’s touched her nose
Robot cradles the injured to his chest that glows
It all must be a dream
To see the fallen sigh, then rise up and on all-fours
And to know now that I’ll no longer suffer
Two One-Bee, can you mend my friend for me?
Then the three of us can hunt for others
Robot, man, canine- blood brothers
Yea, the three of us can hunt for others
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know it’s just a dream
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know it’s just a dream
So I pray myself to sleep
As sun bows out to moon
Hoping with my heart that their suffering ends soon
Or that angels, by their grace, vacate their heavenly abodes
To comfort dogs that die alone along those country roads...
To comfort dogs that die alone along those country roads...
To comfort dogs that die alone along those country roads...
