Everender - Dog Years Lyrics

Let me lay beside you; rest my head on your knee
I wanna feel your hand run through my fur
Like blooming moss in the Spring
I wanna tell you "I love you"
With nothing more than my eyes
I wanna follow you to the end of the Earth
For the rest of my life
A collar makes me yours; a good dog in a dying light
Hear your heart as I lay upon your chest
I lose myself to the night
I just wanna know where I'll rest my head
You'll give me a name, and you'll give me a bed
I don't need to see the end
I only exist as a man's best friend
You'll walk me to harbors to gaze in the ocean
Blue against heaven - I can't shake the notion
That one day you'll be here without me
I'm counting the dog years left
While I sing to the sea
I'll grow in my winter coat
While you grow distant from me
But like I always have, I'll continue to wait
Here at the door as I sleep
I know it won't be forever
But it seems that way to me
I wanna hear my shallow breath in your arms
Before you have to leave
I'll always be yours; a good dog who put up a fight
If I can help, I swear to god
I'll find you in another life
I just wanna know where I'll rest my head
You'll give me a name, and you'll give me a bed
I don't need to see the end
I only exist as a man's best friend
You'll walk me to harbors to gaze in the ocean
Blue against heaven - I can't shake the notion
That one day you'll be here without me
I'm counting the dog years left
While I sing to the sea
A collar makes me yours
A good dog in a dying light
I just wanna know where I'll rest my head
You'll give me a name, and you'll give me a bed
I don't need to see the end
I only exist as a man's best friend
You'll walk me to harbors to gaze in the ocean
Blue against heaven - I can't shake the notion
That one day you'll be here without me
I'm counting the dog years left
While I sing to the sea
