Cat Serenade

I've never been the kind to fall in love
It's just me and a couple of fleas and that's all I want
'Cause I've got my back and my back's got me and I'm good as good can be
Is what I thought, until I met you

As branches swayed in the autumn breeze
Our ember eyes met between the leaves
And somehow every sound around me
Had broken into harmony
I'd never heard a sweeter melody

And I've been thinking for some time
How to spend all these nine lives
I guess just maybe I could spend one on you
I don't know why I feel the way I do
My head's a little fuzzy and my feelings are all askew

And one thing I know is true is that
I'd go black and blue to see you through
Mmmm

Let's run away
With our muddy paws in the rain
And watch the clouds part ways
And as the stars beam down upon us
A somber shadow moves again

I never want this precious time to end
And I've been thinking for sometime
How to spend all these nine lives
I suppose I could use another one or two

And in the Moon's pale gaze
I ponder all those days I spent alone
Mmmm

And now it's me and you
And there's nothing that we can't do
And now you are around
We'll catch all the mice in town

And as we lay
In the warm sunrise
Becoming freshly baked sunshine pies
I'll purr a sweet as a choir of angels
And louder than a symphony

'Cause there's no place I'd rather be
And I've been thinking for sometime
How to spend all these nine lives
But maybe I could spend them on you
Oh just maybe one or two

I think I'd like to spend them on you
