Free Cee Twinkle Twinkle Dying Star

TWINKLE TWINKLE DYING STAR

when i was a little lad i had a puppy named Fred
i loved when Fred used my lap as a bed
he'd romp around in my yard and follow me anywhere
and when it thundered and there was lighting he'd lick away my fear

if i needed something i'd stare at it and he'd fetch it for me
i don't know how he knew but i do know that the truth it be
when i wasn't feeling well and wanted to do nothing but sleep
he'd walk around quiety and not make a peep

he was so understanding and felt compassion from afar
i can't explain it the way i can't explain the dying of a star
his devotion never wavered and his love was all mine
and just like that star i'd watch him shimmer and shine

then i met a woman who did all the same things
but one never knows what fate and providence brings
by the woman i was done in by deceipt and wished i was dead
and i also wish instead of that woman i still had Fred
