lyrics

I fell in a dirty mud puddle, and I scraped my shin
You saw, and you gave me a bandage. Do I want to come in? (Hell, yes)
This song's a completely true accounting of the facts of the matter
You cleaned all the mud off my boots and you offered me some water

Chorus

I've been waiting here so long, long, long
Will I ever hear that song, song, song?
You've been taking care of me, me, me
I've been wondering when you'll cut the leash

I died; and I'm not proud of it but I'd do it again
Just once for a whisper of a melody, a touch of your skin (hell, yes)
You laugh, and say, "I'm right here, big boy, the distance ain't far"
I'll try, but I can't touch you, cuz I can't see where you are

Your heart is all I ever wanted and a truckload more
Your kiss; I could kiss your lips until my lips get sore
My heart? Well, it's nothing much more than a dirty mud puddle
This song's just like my heart, cuz you know it's not subtle

I've been…
Will I…
You've been…
I've been wondering so I cut the leash
