There's a big black dog
Hanging in my house
Sleeping next to me
She's got these big brown eyes
Howling as I cry
Staying at my feet

There's a big black dog
Some days I'd like to leave
I would like to leave with her
To castles in the sky
Valkyries alight
Taking love and lovers first

But she's
A wolf of the night
And you got to let her be
To come and go over time
She's got to be free to roam

There's a big black dog
Hanging in my house
Sleeping on the floor
She's got these big brown eyes
Howling as I cry
Getting harder to ignore

There's a big black dog
Some days I'd like to leave
I would like to leave with her
To castles in the sky
Valkyries alight
Taking love and lovers first

But she's
A wolf of the night
And you got to let her be
To come and go over time
She's got to be free to roam
