Divine Comedy - The Dogs & The Horses Lyrics
Sing a happy songcause spring does not last longA flower blooms and then its goneSummer follows fastMake hay while it lastsDont ever dwell upon the pastFor one day you are here, and the next you are goneEvery horse has its year and every dog its day, my sonSo the only thing to feel sad about isAll the dogs and the horses youll have to outliveTheyll be with you when you say good-byeThen the fall from graceThe lines upon your faceGrow deeper almost every dayDays and weeks roll byAnd winter nights draw nighAnd everything that lives must dieBut as the curtains close and the last prayers are saidAll my dogs and my horses appear round my bedThey have come to say one last goodbyeGoodbye...
