Dogs In Heaven

Carpet on a wood floor

Was the ceiling this close before

Lying side by side by the closet door

We listened to the shallow sounds

Of our own breath inhale and out

And I confess I've never been so happy

Even now

I don't believe in chance encounters

You and I were meant

To be together

It was already planned

I always knew this day would come

Seven does not add up to one

Now I'm faced with what I have always known

Your time might be up but I have more to go

I don't believe in chance encounters

You and I were meant

To be together

It was already planned

Even then

So I'll write a song

For all the dead dogs

I've ever met

And when it's time for me

They'll make room right beside them

And I don't believe in chance encounters

You and I were meant

To be together

It was already planned

And every thought that crossed my mind

I knew he heard it in his own head

Even then
