A Human Named David - Where Have All the Animals Gone Lyrics

You see it I had it all once
But I gave it away
You know I'll tell you I was thinking
I would save the day
Something like a hero in a comic book
You know I might have had I the hair
And might have had the look
As the days flew past
Years disappeared
I went and grew out my hair
And I grew out a beard
And I took it to the mountains
And I took it to the steams
Yeah i went looking for my love
I went looking for my dreams
Yeah I went looking for my love
I went looking for my

Yeah I know
That it's been too long
Tell me now
Where have all the animals gone
Yeah I went looking for my moment
I went looking for my song
Tell me now where have all the animals gone

And when the fire died out
I was on my way
I picked up my pack
And I cleaned off my plate
I said my goodbyes
To the skies and the trees
And they spoke right back
Like you wouldn't believe
And the wind it led me
Right back to her room
She said my pretty little baby
I been waiting here for you
So I took it to the mountains
Yeah I took it to the steams
Yeah we went looking for our love
We went looking for our dreams
Yeah we went looking for our love
We went looking for our

I know
That it's been too long
Tell me now where have all the animals gone
Yeah I was looking for my moment
I went looking for my song
Where have all the animals gone

I've been away
Too long
To remember
The call of the woods
The beckoning of the forest
You've been a ghost to me
And then present
Silent and sure
Silent so pure
As we crossed the ridge
By the break of day
Well we laid down our packs
And we laid down in faith
We kissed so gently underneath the stars
I said my pretty little baby
Now I know just who you are
You are one with nature
You are one with me
As the Earth it turns
So infinitely
So we took it to the mountains
And we took it to the steams
You know I think we found our love
Yeah I think I found our dreams
Oh yeah i know I found my love
Yeah I know I found my

Yeah I know
That it's been too long
Where have all the animals gone
Yeah I was looking for my moment
I was looking for my song
Tell me now where have all the animals gone
