	Story Behind the Song IF YOU NEED TO SEND A TELEPATHIC MESSAGE TO A LOVED ONE FAR AWAY...GO OUT IN THE EVENING AND FIND THE BRIGHTEST STAR IN THE SKY AND SEND YOUR MESSAGE TO THEM ON IT. THE DOG STAR CAN ACTUALLY BE WHICHEVER STAR IS THE BRIGHTEST AT THE TIME..IT SEEMS IT ISN'T NECESSARILY THE STAR, SIRIUS, WHICH THE EGYPTIANS CALL THE DOG STAR..THE CHEROKEE JUST CHOSE THE BRIGHTEST ONE.---MY FATHER TAUGHT MY MOTHER AND I TO SEND EACH OTHER KISSES AND LOVE ON IT WHEN WE HAD TO BE APART. HE, AT THE TIME, DIDN'T EXPLAIN WHERE HE HAD LEARNED THIS, BUT HE WAS CHEROKEE...SO IT'S EASY TO FIGURE OUT...NOW BOTH MY PARENTS HAVE PASSED AWAY, AND I WROTE THIS SONG TO SEND TO THEM ON THE DOG STAR..I KNOW THEY'LL LOVE IT SINCE I GOT ALL MY TALENTS FROM THEM. I MISS THEM SO TERRIBLY AND WANT THEM TO KNOW HOW MUCH I'LL ALWAYS LOVE THEM--AND IT COMFORTS ME TO THINK THIS LEGEND COULD REALLY BE TRUE.... Lyrics SONG TO THE DOG STAR I AM CALLING TO MY FATHER.. CAN WE VISIT FOR A SPELL.. CAN YOU HEAR ME AT YOUR CAMPFIRE IN THE SKY WHERE SPIRITS DWELL.. HOW I MISS YOU MY DEAR FATHER.. IS THAT YOUR VOICE IN MY EAR.. I AM SENDING YOU A NEW SONG TO THE DOG STAR..CAN YOU HEAR.. I AM CALLING TO MY MOTHER.. I FEEL SO LOST AND ALONE.. YOU ARE SHINING IN MY MEMORY WITH A BRIGHTNESS ALL YOUR OWN.. HOW I MISS YOU MY DEAR MOTHER.. STILL MY HEART REJOICES TOO, FOR IT HEARS YOU SINGING WITH ME FROM THE DOG STAR IN THE BLUE.. FOR IT HEARS YOU SINGING WITH ME FROM THE DOG STAR...IN THE BLUE...
