mary chapin carpenter - girl and her dog كلمات أغنية

[verse 1]
everyone asks when you’re growing up
“who do you want to be?”
i never had an answer, couldn’t figure out
why i couldn’t see
myself as some future other
no one’s partner, no one’s mother
no one’s answer, no one’s lover
n0body but me

[chorus]
but the older i get the more i see
that more by itself never worked for me
keeping it simple as it can be
walking along just him and me
mornings here with a coffee cup
songs in my head, looking up
if the rain holds off we’ll be in luck
but we’re lucky anyway

[verse 2]
a long time ago i got married once
didn’t take long to find
that the words i heard coming out of his mouth
were not the truthful kind
i thought about moving to la
maybe upstate or the uk
anywhere as long as it’s far away
from what i left behind
[chorus]
and the older i get the more i’m sure
that more by itself never was a cure
some days i’ve got nothing to show for except
walking the dog and walking the floor
mornings here with a coffee cup
stories in my head, looking up
if the rain holds off we’ll be in luck
but we’re lucky anyway

[verse 3]
in summer neighbors leave tomatoes
in fall dust coats your tires
spring greens up every shadow
in december we lay a fire
i figure i’m finally old enough
to know who i want to be when i grow up
a girl and her dog riding in the truck
wave as we’re going by

[chorus]
now the older i get the less i need
just a good old dog underneath the trees
keeping it simple as it can be
fitting together like a puzzle piece
mornings here with a coffee cup
whistling for him while i’m looking up
if the rain holds off we’ll be in luck
but we’re lucky anyway
