As you turn your back and fly away
Oh, I've tried
When the wind freed me from the roots that tied me down
Slowly walking backwards from your door
Candlelit small light inside your window that I see
Groundhogs digging with their claws
Oh, I tried writing with nothing in return
Lingering are thoughts you left with me
Burying their loves with dirty paws
Calling the phone that you ignore
Hoping that the light still shines for me
As you turn your back and fly away
Now I need them back for comforting
Dive into an empty pool, I've tried
Standing on the curbside I scream, "Please come back!"
Caught on the fence you've left behind
Carvings that we left in branches scarred up on this tree
Now we are done fighting, it's time that you return
Oh, I've tried
Oh, I've tried
Standing from the rooftop I scream, "Won't you bark for me?"
