Zoe Bayani - My Dog
Do i look familiar
In your beholding eye
Do you see the beauty
That you had known as just a child
★ pre-chorus 1 ★
And i
Don't wanna die in my home town
So i hope you find a way out
Cause i'll go where you go
And i
Turn my back and we're in california
And i'm taking your word for the good and bad
★ chorus ★
You don't know it all
But i see the world
As if you said that you did
★ verse 2 ★
And i often feel like
A ghost story waiting to happen
Some times when the lights go out
I stare at myself till my face starts morphing
★ pre-chorus 2 ★
Then i
Close my eyes and i am following you
Through a stranger's house
Because i still go where you go
And i
Turn the corner and don't recognize this place
It's nothing like my childhood home
★ chorus ★
You don't know it all
But i see the world
As if you said that you did
★ bridge ★
And there's a guard dog out back salivating
On something i hope was never alive
If i throw a bone i doubt he'd take it
Cause he ain't raised by you nor i
And if i stand down and let him charge
I hope he'd wait before the bite
And you'd learn to whistle just to save me
But he ain't raised by you nor i
★ outro ★
And i hope you take it fine
And i'll see you on the day my dog dies
I hope you take it fine
And i'll see you on the day my dog dies
I hope you take it fine
And i'll see you on the day my dog dies
I hope you take it fine
