dog with a bone

Top of a mountain high with the trees

Is a man with a dog and a dog listening

He said, "get me some water, sit by my bed

Don't make a sound, I go quiet again

Now we're naked, we're faded

You look in my eyes and the weed makes you sweet

So I keep getting high and I'm spinning

Connecting the dots and the lines

I've been talking to God and he gave me a sign

So I left it, I drove home

You told me, "Come back"

So I listened, I did it

And even after that

You just loved me and you held me

A hill I'd rest on

And I'd wake up and wonder

Where the hell had you gone?

But I sat there and listened

The dog with the bone

With a bark that's so quiet

The drop of a stone

You could hear it

A shiver down the spine of your back

Did I love you, would I leave you?

Is all that you'd ask

And the politics, the pope spilled

The boy I once met, where'd that go?

'Cause you know that it seemed to connect you with water

The world and the way that we move

Makes a bitch out of me

But makes a man out of you

And I could slip off that leash

And I'd sit by your feet

I never wanted nothing bad

But I wanted you too badly

So I left it, I drove home

You told me, "come back"

So I listened, I did it

And even after that

You just loved me and you held me

A hill I'd rest on

And I'd wake up and wonder

Where the hell had you gone?

But I sat there and listened

The dog with the bone

With a bark that's so quiet

The drop of a stone

You could hear it

A shiver down the spine of your back

Did I love you, would I leave you?

Is all that you'd ask

So I left it, I drove home

You came through that door with a bone in your hand

As I sat on the floor

As I sat on the floor

As I sat on the floor
