Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mornings aren't the same without you
Can't remember life before
When the weight of the world gets heavy
You're what I'm coming home for
[Chorus]
My best friend don't need words to understand
Seen me at my worst, still thinks I'm worth a damn
No shadows in the dark, no place I'd rather be
Than right here living these dog days with you and me
[Verse 2]
Right here next to me, sunrise to sunset
When I wake, you're there, when I move, you follow
You've got me figured out and I don't fight it
Making room, making time for the life we borrowed
[Chorus]
My best friend don't need words to understand
Seen me at my worst, still thinks I'm worth a damn
No shadows in the dark, no place I'd rather be
Than right here living these dog days with you and me
[Verse 3]
There's gray around your face now
Time don't wait for no one
Holding on to every moment
Nothing good stays young
But right now you're here beside me
That's enough, that's everything
I'll love you past forever
Past the hurt that time will bring
[Chorus]
My best friend don't need words to understand
Seen me at my worst, still thinks I'm worth a damn
No shadows in the dark, no place I'd rather be
Than right here living these dog days with you and me
[Bridge]
You know me, I know you
Can't tell anymore
Who's saving who
All this love you give
I never earned
Don't want to think about
A world where you're not here
[Chorus]
My best friend don't need words to understand
Seen me at my worst, still thinks I'm worth a damn
No shadows in the dark, no place I'd rather be
Than right here living these dog days with you and me
[Outro]
These dog days
Yeah, these dog days
