DONALD'S SONG
(Rick Lugg)

He wandered off in sleep last night
He didn't tell us why
He must have had to hurry, though
He didn't say goodbye
He brushed his teeth
And went upstairs
Put his pajamas on
Mom tucked him in
And said good night
In the morning he was gone

He wandered off in sleep last night
He didn't tell us where
I hope that he has found some friends
And I hope there's music there
He loved his Amos Moses
and Up Around the Bend
Living for the City
He played them over & over again

He wandered off in sleep last night
Never to return
He took the love we gave to him
He left us what we learned
He'd ride up & down the driveway
Head cocked to the side
He waved his crooked little wave
At the traffic passing by

He wandered off in sleep last night
He must have understood
When I asked how far he threw that ball
He said, "I threw it as far as I could"
I threw it as far as I could.
