Ode to the Wandering Cat (Dawn)

[Verse] Tiptoes soft in the pale moonlight Whiskers twitch and eyes so bright Through alleyways where shadows dwell A tale of freedom None can tell [Chorus] Meow echoes through the night A song of roamin’ Pure delight Golden fur and heart so free The wandering cat is wild as can be [Verse 2] Paws on rooftops Stars above A life of mystery Laced with love No collar’s chain No tethered bound This feline soul won’t be pinned down [Chorus] Meow echoes through the night A song of roamin’ Pure delight Golden fur and heart so free The wandering cat is wild as can be [Bridge] By the baker’s window Warm and near The smell of bread A gentle cheer Yet boundless calls of the open street Guide those tiny Daring feet [Verse 3] Someday a home may steal his heart Velvet cushions A fresh new start Yet tonight he dances No ties to vein A lonely meow His steadfast refrain
