Tim Kasher - Strays lyrics

rate me

've been thinking I should write some kind of love song for you...

Too prove to you I do

It shouldn't be to hard to write

I'll just think of that time I first saw you in omaho

You were stranded on Jackson with a bus fare to who know's where

I took you in, right, then and there

And life took on a new form

No more stayin out all night

No more killin ourselves just to make ourselves feel alright

No more sleepin with stranger's and those awkward, goodbyes

I never had much family, never had too many friends

Then you came wandering through

Pompously I took you for granted

That's why I gotta write this little, this little love song for you

I'll sing about those Denver mornings you'd wake up ballin bout a long lost kid

Your maternal instincts, were kickin in

As the sun dazzled bright upon the peaks

You brought home a dog you found in the alley

You said can we keep her? I said well, what kind of man would I be?

So you bought her a collar, and you called her your family

Right is a selfish right is a egotist

I'm afraid I'm as bad as it gets

I keep forgettin to sensor the truth

That's why I better write some, some kinda love song for you

We're drivin cross country in a uhaul, on the hunt for our new home

High a top Eagle Rock, we found a house with a big back yard

So we picked up another mutt, from the Crenshaw Pound

Sippin coffee on the porch while the dogs wrestle on the lawn

I'm sorry I've had my doubts...

Were a family of strays but together we've been found

Were a family of stray's but together we've been found
