look at her go
I’ve become a cold case
Bruised and black
Laying on a table with my eyes rolled back
A husband for dear Doe, Jane
I used to fit in your arms like a book in a shelf
Now I sit on the floor telling jokes to myself
I hope I don’t become a good boy, slow and strong
Minding my manners and tagging along
A pet for my dear Doe, Jane
I used to nip at the heels and bay at the moon
Now I sit and stay like the good dogs do
So let’s strap on our jaws and head back to the home land
Where we sit and stare like it’s our god chosen gift
Yeah, but the closest I’ve come to perfection
Is when you turned around to steal a kiss
But you never trusted tomorrow
Yeah, baby is that anyway to live your life?
[…]
Yeah, but you showed me that I couldn’t be farther
From the truth of the problem at hand
Oh, I could never say “baby, tomorrow
Oh, I’ll be right there!”
I’m be your man
Yeah, oh, I’ll be your man
If I die before I wake
Save my dreams for another day
‘Cause tonight
I’ve got nothing on my mind but you
Somewhere, somehow
You’ll feel it too
