"dog with a bone" lyrics

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, 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 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, 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
