Old Dog

Will you teach this old dog how to walk Will you nurture her to health And let her talk Will you make sure she is never hurt again Can you love her until the end Tell her stories and allow her to be free Teach her love should never make it hard to breathe Hold her close with open love and be a friend Always love her until the end Cause she's afraid of the cold dark world And she's afraid you will leave her for a better girl Scars on the heart are the hardest to heal When you don't trust How you feel She will tread oh so lightly on her feet Scared to make you act The way he used to treat her So hold your hand out Touch her slow And don't pretend Can you love her until the end Cause she's afraid of the cold dark world And she's afraid you will leave her for a better girl Scars on the heart are the hardest to heal When you don't trust How you feel Reach on out, be by her side And send her love The validation that she craving from someone Give her time and let her body make amends Always love her Love her until the end Reach on out, be by her side And send her love The validation that she craving from someone Give her time and let her body make amends Always love her Love her until the end Cause she's afraid of the cold dark world And she's afraid you will leave her for a better girl Scars on the heart are the hardest to heal When you don't trust How you feel
