lyrics

Once I'd been caught with a leash like a dog
With a ponytail rope and a song.
The weather was soft and my body forgotten,
Eleven at night in the white flower garden
The weight of the world and the heavier words
No longer rested on me,
Right by my girl as she smiles at squirrels
Ringin' round the old oak tree

Twenty years old when we built us a home
Down by the freshwater stream.
Next thing I know, came a child of my own,
Came a girl who asked nothin' of me.
I've got letters to send, letters I haven't read,
Turnin' yellow too fast to believe,
What I'd say has been said, but that's not what I meant
So I've given up tryin' to speak.

I don't know what it is, I'm to do while I live,
While my baby smiles just like she did
When I was caught with a leash like a dog,
With a ponytail rope, and a song.
