A SHELTER FERRET'S LOVE
by Paul E. Jamison
Based on "Higher Love" by Steve Winwood
 
(The human)
I think about it, I must have ferret love,
Since my sweet Bandit crossed to the Bridge above.
Without him, my life is wasted time,
A Bandit-sized hole in this heart of mine.
I feel lonely everywhere;
In this whole world, that's not fair!
Before one more day has gone by,
Gonna find a shelter guy!
 
Bring me some ferret love!
Bring me some ferret love!
Bring me some ferret love!
Where's that ferret love I keep thinking of?
 
     (The Shelter ferret)
     Worlds are turning and I'm just hanging on,
     Facing my fear that I'll always be alone.
     A yearning, what I want to see
     Is that some human comes and adopts me.
     Homeless ferrets everywhere;
     In this whole world, that's not fair!
     My Shelter Mom is good to me,
     But a forever home - will it ever be?
 
     Bring me a human's love!
     Bring me a human's love!
     Bring me a human's love!
     Where's that human love I keep thinking of?
 
     Bring me a human's love!
     Bring me a human's love!
     Bring me a human's love!
     I would give so much for some human love!
 
At the shelter now,
I try and find a pal.
     Will that human there choose me?
     Is he the one for me?
 
"That's him... That one there..."
 
Our hearts connect the first time that we meet.
Both of us together - it's meant to be!
I gladly pay the shelter's fee.
Now you're gonna come home with me!!
 
I've got my ferret love!!
I've got my ferret love!!
I've got my ferret love!!
It's that ferret love I kept thinking of!!!
 
     I've got a human's love!!
     I've got a human's love!!
     I've got a human's love!!
     I will dance and dook for my new human's love!!!
