There once was a man
So an old story goes
Went to the station

Every day rain or snow

His faithful dog

Would walk right by his side
Sit there and wait
Til he came home at night


And when the man died
The dog still would go

To the station each day
Why, no one knows


He was waiting for someone he loved
Waiting for someone he loved
Someone he believed in

Someone he could trust
Day after day
Waiting for someone he loved


Days turned to weeks
And months turned to years

Trains came and went
But the dog still appeared


Hoping to see that face he adored
His old true companion
The one he lived for


And then came the night
When the dog finally died

Now I know he's there walking
By his masters side


He's been waiting for someone he loved
Waiting for someone he loved
Someone he believed in

Someone he could trust
Don't you think humans
Could learn from that dog


Now I don't know about all of you
But I wish that my heart was so true

To think he could miss him that much
He spent all his life
Waiting for someone he loved

Waiting for someone he loved
