Vertaling van: Jody Kids - Een Doodgewone Kat
He could purr like the best, he was playful and he was soft
He understood, I am certain, what I said and what I thought
Now anybody may claim: it was an ordinary cat
But how greatly we loved eachother for all those years
When I got him from somebody who had advertised in the papers
When I got him, he was so tiny that he could sit on my hand
A bundle of whool, with big eyes, far too wise and far too blue
It was like he said "you belong to me, and I belong to you"
He could purr like the best, he was playful and he was soft
He understood, I am certain, what I said and what I thought
Now anybody may claim: it was an ordinary cat
But how greatly we loved eachother for all those years
One day, I had left the frontdoor open for a moment
Then he was gone, I was almost nauseous when I went to look for him
But close to home, he came towards me with his tail up in the air
it was like he said "A walk around the block is refreshing" He could purr like the best, he was playful and he was soft
He understood, I am certain, what I said and what I thought
Now anybody may claim: it was an ordinary cat
But how greatly we loved eachother for all those years
Then he got old, and he wasn't as adventurous as then
Because he was in pain, and our doctor really couldn't help it anymore
Then, one day, I heard him mewl softly, early in the morning
And when I came it was like he said "It's been enough."
He could purr like the best, he was playful and he was soft
He understood, I am certain, what I said and what I thought
Now anybody may claim: it was an ordinary cat
But how greatly we loved eachother for all those years
He could purr like the best, he was playful and he was soft
He understood, I am certain, what I said and what I thought
Now anybody may claim: it was an ordinary cat
