Lyrics Oscar Wilde - The Cat Empire

Oscar Wilde

I remember a night back home
Some distant years ago
As my dog ran along the road
As fast as he could go
And I know that the past is gone but
Some moments shine like gold
And I called as I followed
And all I called was
Oh-weh, oh-weh oh-weh
Oh-weh, and where do we go, eh?
Oh-weh oh-weh
Oh-weh, just on and on and on
I’m going to let go
I’m going to see you
I’m going to do all I was afraid
If I would forget
Who I thought I was
I’m gonna make a friend of chaos
Will you be my friend
Will you be my right hand
If I ran into my creature
So glad to meet you
Oscar Wilde, yeah
Ooh-weh, ooh-weh
Ooh-weh, ooh-weh
In the pause of a morning stare
In the roar of a midnight song
I’ve followed you out there
I’ve followed you old dog
When I run let me feel no care
Let me spark when the evening comes
What’s mine is mine to bear
So all I call is
Oh-weh, oh-weh oh-weh
Oh-weh, and where do we go, eh?
Oh-weh oh-weh
Oh-weh, just on and on and on
Up on the rooftops
As the day goes
All of the wild ones sing
«Where do we go?
Where do we go?
Where do we go?»
Just on and on and
Down in the alleys
Of broken bottles
All of the dogs echo
«Well how would I know?
Well how would I know?
Well how would I know?»
How would I know?
and
Ooh-weh, ooh-weh
Ooh-weh, ooh-weh
Ooh-weh, ooh-weh
Ooh-weh, ooh-weh
I’m going to let go
I’m going to see you
I’m going to do all I was afraid of
I will forget
Who I thought I was
I’m gonna make a friend of chaos
Will you be my friend
Will you be my right hand
If I went into my creature
I’m not gonna miss it
Oscar Wilde, yeah
Ooh-weh, ooh-weh
Ooh-weh, ooh-weh
Ooh-weh, ooh-weh
Ooh-weh, ooh-weh
