Song Lyrics 2

Nine Lives- Persian Cat

I would like to take a trip
Round the world on a sailing ship
A simple boat built just for two
We'd set sail just me and you
And we'd go round and then when
We reach our destination
We'd start over, can't you see
You're the only one for me
And if I had nine,
If I, if I had nine lives
I would live them
I would live them all with you

For life two we would build a home
Lots of kids and garden gnomes
Pitter patter of the feet
Running up and down the street
For number three, I'd work a lot
That's what I was always taught
We'd buy all the things we need
For a healthy family
For life four I would read and read
How I love the library
Every now and then I'd look
For your face among the books
And if I had nine,
If I, if I had nine lives
I would live them,
I would live them all with you
And if I, if I had nine lives
I would live them all with you
You're my one and only love
Nine lives would not be enough with you

For lives five, six, seven and eight
We'd try to alleviate
Sounds of suffering and the cries
Of hunger, pain and forelorn eyes
We'd help people everywhere
Show them that we really care
For a simple twist or two,
We'd be walking in their shoes
For life nine we would be somewhere
On a pair of rocking chairs
We'd be happy, slightly grey
Isn't it a lovely day
And if I'm lucky you will bake
Me a tasty birthday cake
When I turn age one-oh-four
I will wish for nine lives more
And if I had nine,
If I, if I had nine lives
I would live them,
I would live them all with you
And if I, if I had nine lives
I would live them all with you
You're my one and only love
Nine lives would not be enough with you
