NEW RELEASE

TRAVELLER

(running dog press 2007)

driving down

to take my dog swimming

slow

quiet

sad music

on the classical station

someday, I think

someday I'll feel

the way that music sounds

my dog is getting older

and he won't always be here

but I don't feel like that today

today

he's right beside me

today

we're going swimming
