"Rescue Dog" lyrics

"Rescue Dog"

I'm not one to know when to leave
Giving up when love seems over
I'm not one to stop 'til the game is won
I've been told that I'm just naive
Like a child that has no reason
Loyalty's all I got so I'm not gon' run

But I been treated like I'm haunted
Like a ghost that no one knew
I been left for dead, unwanted
When there was no sign of you
I moved on
Didn't matter anyway

Just when I thought that nobody was watching
You came to see what no one ever saw
Just like a dream that seemed would never happen
You came and took me home
I feel like a rescue dog (Hoping on a feeling)
Feel like a rescue dog (Hoping on a feeling)

Remember the song that we sang?
When our love was young and easy
Something 'bout burning out, never fade away
And now this love is still easy
Just not so young anymore
Loyalty's all I got, so I'm here to stay

Just when I thought that nobody was watching
You came to see what no one ever saw
Just like a dream that seemed would never happen
You came and took me home
I feel like a rescue dog (Hoping on a feeling)
Feel like a rescue dog (Hoping on a feeling)
I feel like a rescue dog (Hoping on a feeling)
Feel like a rescue dog (Hoping on a feeling)

But I was treated like I'm haunted
Like a ghost that no one knew
I been left for dead unwanted
When there was still no sign of you
So I moved on

Just when I thought that nobody was watching
You came to see what no one ever saw
Just like a dream that seemed would never happen
You came and took me home
I feel like a rescue dog (Hoping on a feeling)
Feel like a rescue dog (Hoping on a feeling)
Feel like a rescue dog (Hoping on a feeling)
I'll be your rescue dog
