TV ON THE RADIO LYRICS - Love Dog

"Love Dog"



Lonely little love dog that

No one knows the name of

I know why you cry out

Desperate and devout



Timid little teether

Your eyes set on the ether

Your moon in a bella luna and

Howling hallelujah



Nameless you above me

Come lay me low and love me

This lonely little love dog

That no one knows the name of



Curse me out in free verse

Wrap me up and reverse this

Patience is a virtue

Until it's silence burns you



And something slow

Has started in me as

Shameless as an ocean

Mirrored in devotion



Something slow

Has sparked up in me

As dog cries for a master

Sparks are whirling faster



Lonely little love dog

That no one knows the ways of

Where the land is low is

Where the bones will show through



Lonely little love dog

That no one knows the days of

Where the land is low is

Where the water flows to

And holds you
