[Verse 1]
Yesterday I saw a ghost
Shopping in Tesco
You were asking a stranger, darling
Looking for the oats, for some oats
Now and then I think of you
Stormy afternoons
Are you cosy by a fire?
Or living in wet shoes, in wet shoes?
[Chorus 1]
In every town there's a dog
That only wants to love
From time to time, there is you
A roof makes a house
Only love will build a home
As I long to go building with you
[Verse 2]
There's no trees in Smithfield
There's no comfort here
How I long for the country, darlin'
My home stew and a beer, and a beer
It won't be long 'til Christmas
We all migrate home
And my home is calling me, babe
For now I must stay here, I must stay here
[Chorus 2]
In this town, I'm a dog
That only wants to love
From time to time, there is you
A roof builds a house
Only love will build a home
As I long to go building with you
[Chorus 2]
'Cause in this town, I'm a dog
That only wants to love
From time to time, there is you
A roof makes a house
Only love will build a home
As I long to go building with you
