Dog Eared

My heart might hang me if I gave it an inch
 It would sing you a sad one
 For the sake of seeing you cry
 My heart might heal you
 It's been with me such a long long time
 But these dog eared feelings never bite
 Lay your head down lightly
 Get layed low and close
 Your searching eyes
 A little scratch ain't going to kill you
 And a little something you are bound to find
 A little or nothing's found to bind you
 And a little something
 Well it always seems to try
 My heart should thank me
 I've been patient such a long long time
 But these dog eared feelings never bite
 Lay your head down lightly
 Get layed low and close
 Your searching eyes
 A little scratch ain't going to kill you
 And a little something you are bound to find
 My heart might hang me if I gave it an inch
 It would sing you a sad one
 For the sake of seeing you cry
 My heart just kneels there
 It's been with me such a long long time
 But these dog eared feelings never bite
