patty larkin - i told him that my dog wouldn't run (live) lyrics

[verse 1]
i told him that my dog wouldn’t run
i told him that i loved someone
yeah, that’s my old car out in the parking lot
i saw him when he first walked in
i thought it was a vision of him
he was looking like where he had been
looking kind of fragile

[chorus]
he said
i read the bible every day
trying to keep the demons at bay
thank god when the sun goes down
i don’t blow away
[verse 2]
my friend said, “was he always like that?”
i said, “yeah, but he was never this bad”
and i remember us playing for nickels and dimes
out on the corner
i asked him to marry me once
and hе told me he couldn’t becausе
this would be all that there was

[chorus]
he said
i read the bible every day
trying to keep the demons at bay
thank god when the sun goes down
i don’t blow away

[verse 3]
he was laughing but i didn’t get the joke
he was dying to light up a smoke
and i wanted to cry
in the fluorescent light of the restaurant
i smiled and i got up to go
i was hoping for a goodbye to hold
but it was kinda like touching a ghost
so i ran when i walked out
[chorus]
he said
i read the bible every day
trying to keep the demons at bay
thank god when the sun goes down
i don’t blow away

[outro]
i got in my car and i drove
over the bridge to the coast
wondering where does old love go
