Only God and Dogs Songtext
von Ricky Ross

I saw you passing through
You didn′t catch my eye
I said, oh no
I'm only sleeping on the street
And I was woken by the singing and the laughter
Knowing nothing I do or think can really matter
I saw you wandering
I saw you raking through the bins
I saw your clothes, I smelt your shoes
Your empty boxes and your tins

But I′d know you anywhere
If I saw you morning night or noon
That's why I lift myself up enough just to run after you
I'd give you everything of me
Knowing you can′t return it back in full
That′s why I love you
The way only God and Dogs can do
That's why I love you
The way only God and Dogs can do


I think of yesterday
We never got out of the door
I said, oh no
I can only lie down on the floor with you
In the the shape you′re in
Cause you've been drinking everything
When we go out on the street
I can see them wondering
What′s he doing with him
When he could have a better life
Somewhere with the lights all burning bright
And the fire to lie down beside each night

But I never wanted that if I wanted anything
I just wanted someone who's life would fall apart
If I went missing
So I give you everything of me
Knowing you can′t return it back in full
That's why I love you
The way only God and Dogs can do
I love you just the way only God and Dogs can do
