CAGE 23 - Ted Kirkpatrick/Tourniquet - feat. Gabbie Rae and Ashley Argota video free download

Dedicated to the beautiful shelter animals waiting for their forever homes – and the countless wonderful people working to make that happen.

CAGE 23

Well I walked right in the front door

Started moving down the rows of so many cages

All the faces staring back at me

Each and every one with a sad story

I wonder how they got here, where did they come from

Somewhere somehow someone didn't want them anymore

I paused at cage number 23

As a dog with a sad but hopeful face was looking up at me

I said I’ll take you home someday, but not today

And if not by me, by some other family, I'm sure

Hang tight my little friend while I figure it out

A better life waits for you just around the bend

Hang tight my little friend while I figure it out

Just wait for me and you’ll soon be free

Every year, approximately 7 million companion animals enter animal shelters nationwide. Sadly, over 2 million of these precious animals are euthanized before anyone comes to give them a home. Together, we can change these tragic statistics.

In Cage 23 and beyond - they're waiting – waiting to offer their unconditional love, their loyalty, and a bond that can't be put into words. Will you make room in your home, and in your heart – to change not only their life – but very likely, yours too...

So when I finally found the time to take him home with me

I walked back to find an empty cage 23

They said nobody came to rescue him

His time ran out, I’m sorry he’s gone

Oh how I miss that special soul in cage 23...
