Lyrics

All the dogs are haunted
And the snow melts on the grass
You were what
I wantedBut the fever could not last
In the day,
I am dreaming
In the night,
I am coldWhile the stars are up there singing
All the dogs are growing old
No regrets, they're out the window
Frozen on the silver pane
Gone like winter, let the wind blow
Let the dogs howl at the rain
In the day,
I am dreaming
In the night,
I am coldWhile the stars are up there singing
All the dogs are growing old
Oh, the cats are in the alley
And the rats are on the wire
Time is breathless as a blossom
And it's bursting with desire
And the dogs wander freely
Through the streets of long gone dreams
Drift like ghosts down the back roads
All the way to
New Orleans
In the day,
I am dreaming
In the night,
I am coldWhile the stars are up there singing
All the dogs are growing old
