Lyrics
Verse
The porch swing creaks in the evening air
I still see your shadow sitting there
The garden grows wild, the weeds run high
Underneath a heavy, silent sky
Chorus
Oh, the years go by like a river wide
With no one left to walk by my side
I’m watching the sun sink low and red
Counting the moments since you were dead
Verse
I rest my head on your old wool coat
And catch the words that you never wrote
My tail thumps slow on the wooden floor
Waiting for your key to turn the door
Chorus
Oh, the years go by like a river wide
With no one left to walk by my side
I’m watching the sun sink low and red
Counting the moments since you were dead
Bridge
My muzzle is white and my eyes are dim
The light in the hallway is growing slim
I’ll sleep by the hearth til the fire goes cold
Living out stories that we never told
Chorus
Oh, the years go by like a river wide
With no one left to walk by my side
I’m watching the sun sink low and red
Counting the moments since you were dead
