A Man's Best Friend

Myth is the public dream, and dream is the private myth. - Joseph Campbell

A Man's Best Friend

What's a guy to do when his best friend dies?
How's he supposed to feel with those closed eyes?
For fifty years, he's always been there.

What's a guy to do when his best friend's gone?
How's he going to feel when he's a bit alone?
Others will be there. Just don't know where.

What's a old girl to do to comfort her old guy?
How's she supposed to deal with the little sighs?
Well, you just be there. That's how we care.
