Daniel Dolphin

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Daniel was a dolphin with wide innocent eyes We met him seven years ago in an island paradise He used to meet us at the shore, and swim with us and laugh And show us games and coral reefs and carry us like a raft [Chorus] Daniel Dolphin was a real friend, he knew more than he said Smart as Daniel was, he used his heart before his head No one would believe he was as bright as what we said No one knew he loved us [Verse 2] One day our grand papa was watching us play It hurt him that we ran along and with him did not stay And so, he followed us along the sunny, sandy shore He got so far behind us that he couldn't walk anymore [Chorus] Daniel Dolphin was a real friend, he knew more than he said Smart as Daniel was, he used his heart before his head No one would believe he was as bright as what we said No one knew he loved us [Bridge] There were the young ones playing There was the old one praying [Verse 3] Daniel took our grand papa away through the waves They couldn't find him anywhere in the coral reefs or caves But three days later Daniel came, but they killed him angrily But not before he brought to shore a tiny, old brand-new baby [Chorus] Daniel Dolphin was a real friend, he knew more than he said Smart as Daniel was, he used his heart before his head No one would believe he was as bright as what we said No one knew he loved us [Outro] No one knew he loved us
