"A Cat Has Nine Lives" lyrics

A Cat Has Nine Lives

A cat has nine lives
This I've heard
But he's not the only one
I must have a thousand lives
And you've taken every one

Well, a cat has nine lives
I've got more
Because I've lived and died for you
I only live when I have your love
And I die when you say we're through

Well, I die each time you leave me
I know that it's the end
But you come back and relive me
Then I start to live again

A cat has nine lives
I've got more
But a cat don't have to pay
With a broken heart each time he dies
If his lover goes away

Well, I die each time you leave me
I know that it's the end
But you come back and relive me
Then I start to live again

Well, a cat has nine lives
I've got more
But a cat don't have to pay
With a broken heart each time he dies
If his lover goes away
