Plodding Sightless Canine



let's go for a run
down by the lake
maybe take a walk on the moon
make it shake and bake

let's go to the mountains
and howl in the night
i will hold you in the darkness
i will hold with all my might
i will hold this old blind dog
i will hold with all my might

let's get ourselves some dinner
eat it on the deck
i will take care of you always
i will scratch you on your neck

when sleep will overtake us
and in our dreams we run
i will be there right beside you
i will race you to the sun

let's go to the mountains
and howl in the night
i will hold you in the darkness
i will hold with all my might
i will hold this old blind dog
i will hold with all my might

sometimes you cry a little
you whimper, that's okay
things are hard all over
but it's you who made me brave

you cannot see tomorrow
you can't live inside the past
but you can ease your sorrow
with a love that surely lasts

let's go to the mountains
and howl in the night
i will hold you in the darkness
i will hold with all my might
i will hold this old blind dog
i will hold with all my might

The Slow Blind Dog sign was posted at the entrance to Wheatland Winery, a fine establishment adjacent to the Willamette River just north of Keizer, Oregon.
