The Dog & Bone

Lyrics

I may have taken for granted the meaning of time
I may have forgotten the reasons to write a good rhyme
It was the best I could do with the cards I had to choose
It's the days in between that matter with you

When there's tears on the ashes, the problems have caused
It takes time to get over the greatest feelings you've lost
I was a sinner to some and a saint to a few
It's the days in between that were the best I ever knew


What's a dog without a bone, fellas?
It's like drinking all alone
Well, sometimes you need a little more
That's what you get at the Dog and Bone


You did what you did 'cause you didn't know better
I've thanked you a hundred times in my head
If I forgot to tell you
Paid for memories, worth more than gold
It's the days in between that matter most


Well, what's a dog without a bone, fellas?
It's like drinking alone
Well, sometimes you need a little more
That's what you get at the Dog and Bone
