lyrics

oscar was my dog until he died
and i cried
cuz' flower pots could never keep him alive
just in time
and when he went away i thought i'd always be the same but no
and anyway our time is still a ticking from a two and fro

so you'll be in our spirits and hearts
what the world cannot desire is a carousel on fire but
you'll be here too

so you'll be in our bodies and minds
with the floating cogs and basketball courts
and crying in the shower but
you will be there too
