[Verse]

I come home from a world gone mad

Dirty boots and a heartbeat flat

My dog’s got fireworks in his eyes

My wife just nods says "Welcome back"

[Verse 2]

The leash is jingling like spare change

The wagging tail knows zero shame

But there she sits absorbed in her book

Dog’s the only one giving me a second look

[Chorus]

It's tail wags and cold noses for me

Jumping paws heal my misery

I could lose a kingdom I could lose my mind

But my dog acts like I’m a hero every time

[Verse 3]

Dinner’s cold and the silence bites

Her phone's glowing hotter than candlelight

But by my feet there's a warm parade

Four furry legs and love pre-paid

[Bridge]

There’s no grudge no strings no games

No silent wars no nicknames

That dog don’t care if I wear the same shirt twice

His love ain’t portioned out like slivers of ice

[Chorus]

It's tail wags and cold noses for me

Jumping paws heal my misery

I could lose a kingdom I could lose my mind

But my dog acts like I’m a hero every time

[Verse 4]

Dinner’s cold and the silence bites

Her phone's glowing hotter than candlelight

But by my feet there's a warm parade

Four furry legs and love pre-paid
