Mmmmm

Hmmmm

Found your bone underneath the sink

Little gray hair caught up in the brink

That old back door doesn't creep the same

Since the day they called your name

Old collar on the shelf

Chewed up leather busted bell

I talk like you can hear me

In this quiet little hell mmmm

I still leave a space beside my chair

Like you're limping back from somewhere

Old collar on the shelf

But I ain't put you down myself

Your blanket's cold curled up in a heat

I make the bed but I don't sleep deep

Every creaky night I still had expect

Those shaky paws that crooked neck

Old collar on the shelf

Chewed up leather busted bell

I talk like you can hear me

In this quiet little hell

I still leave a space beside my chair

Like you're limping back from somewhere

Old collar on the shelf

But I ain't put you down myself

You were there when the kids moved out

Hmmm

You were there when you walked right out oh

You stayed hard gateway before your bark ever did

You carried all my secrets like a talisman

Old collar on the shelf

Chewed up leather busted bell

I talk like you can hear me

In this quiet little hell

I'll meet you by that rusted gate

Where the good soul's sitting wait ooo

Collar on my shelf

But you're still lying by myself

Haaa uuuu mmmmm
