lyrics

it’s so late, I wanna cry
I thrive on routine but lately I’ve
been staying up with you
where were you in high school?
I’m making up for lost time

it’s not a concept I comprehend
when I’m lying in my bed with you
your hands move expertly
pat my head and call my name all sweet because

I’m a dog for you!
snuggle up tighter, it’s so cold in this room
I’m a dog for you!
I lie on my back and you rub my belly, so cute

I’m so tired from running round
all day doing things the man wants me to get done
I’d rather just sit down
listening to your memories
from when you were really young

didn’t know your grandma very well
saying sorry for things you don’t regret
standing out by the cows in the sun
you’re not too young to have Mexican chewing gum

I’m a dog for you!
sitting by the door just waiting here for you
I’m a dog for you!
scratch behind my ears and my breathing quickens, so cute

I’m a dog for you!
I get nervous when I think you’re about to leave the room
I’m a dog for you!
right after you leave I spend the whole day thinking of you
I’m a dog for you!
I’m a dog for you!
I’m a dog for you!
I would do whatever just to hear you call me so cute
