Verse 1
An angel at the feet of someone by me on Southwest
A golden dog called Clementine, I saw it on her vest
She took one look at me, sensing I don’t like to fly
Came over to me gently, and looked me in the eyes

Chorus:
Clementine was in my head
Calming me down, with big brown eyes
I wish as I fly through my life,
I could find a Clementine

Verse 2
Clementine, she told me, “even artichokes have hearts
“Every day’s a new beginning” she cheerfully barked
I saw how her owner’s sanity rests in gilded paws
I watched Clementine guide her out through the cabin door

[Repeat Chorus]

Bridge:
How could a dog know what to say,
To encourage someone like me to have faith

[Repeat Chorus]

Yeah, I wish, as I fly through my life I could find a Clementine
