October Afternoon

[Куплет 1] The frost was silver on the kennel gates, The maples shook their copper down. I clipped the leashes to my belt, And walked the first small crew around. Milo had a crooked little grin, One ear up and one ear low; He’d come in scared of every sound, Now he leads the way we go. [Алдынғы қайырма] You can see a heart come back to life In the smallest things it tries. [Қайырма] Come on out, we’ve got a mile of sky, A field of leaves and a little more time. Every brave soul gets a chance to begin, Every tail keeps telling us, “let me in.” On an october afternoon, They turn a gray day bright as noon. I came to help them find their way— They give me joy i take home every day. [Куплет 2] June was found beside the county road, A brindle blur with a stubborn spark. She learned to trust the open gate, And chase a tennis ball across the park. Then old mr. whiskers, missing teeth, Claimed the sunniest patch of grass; He let a shy kid brush his coat, And made the whole long morning pass. [Алдынғы қайырма] There’s a kind of courage in a paw That keeps reaching out again. [Қайырма] Come on out, we’ve got a mile of sky, A field of leaves and a little more time. Every brave soul gets a chance to begin, Every tail keeps telling us, “let me in.” On an october afternoon, They turn a gray day bright as noon. I came to help them find their way— They give me joy i take home every day. [Көпір] At the end of the trail, a family slowed, A little girl knelt down to say hello. Milo leaned in, june sat still, And old whiskers purred against her sleeve. I watched three stories find a home, While the last leaves spun along the road. [Final chorus] Come on out, we’ve got a mile of sky, A field of leaves and a whole new life. Every brave soul gets a chance to begin, Every tail keeps telling us, “let me in.” On an october afternoon, They turn the whole world bright as noon. I came to help them find their way— They give me joy i take home every day. [Аутро] Every day, every day, They give me joy i take home every day.
