In and Out

about

Animals enrich our lives and teach us truth about loyalty, unconditional understanding, and how wonderful life can be. This song provides fantastic first person lyrics that reflect that deep connection. The guitar work, reminiscent of Django Rienhardt, is delicate yet powerfully emotive. The vocals match the style beautifully. A gorgeous song, that's made many a grown man cry.

lyrics

On the porch, my old dog's waiting. Laying there, her front paws hanging. Breathing in, so nice and easy. Open eyes taking in the seasons. From what I see, there's sure a lot for me to learn just watching her breathe. In and out, from the house to the yard. In and out of my arms. In and out from the car. In and out, through the passing of time, that steady constant friend was always mine. In and out. At the door, my old dogs waiting. Standing there with her long tail wagging. A routine twenty years in the making. Now her easy golden years are all that she's taking and from what, from what I've seen, that loving soul with fur and tail was always training me. In and out, from the house to the yard. In and out of my arms. In and out from the car. In and out, through the passing of time, that steady constant friend was always mine. In and out of my heart. Beating time with her tail, caring eyes full of love, and a bark. Down the road, when my own life is slower, I will smile knowing she's getting closer once again, with her long tail wagging. Now my easy golden years will be worth my on taking, 'cause from what, from what I've seen, there's nothing there to doubt at all she'll be waiting there for me. In and out, from the house to the yard. In and out of my arms. In and out from the car. In and out, through the passing of time, that steady constant friend was always mine. In and out.
