You'Ve Got Me On My Knees
The day I brought you home
I knocked on the door
I waited outside
In hopes he would adore
Who was I kidding
You were the cutest of all
It was nothing but fitting
He loved what he saw
You ran in circles
But never did bark
Found a spot in our bed
And a place in our hearts
You're ready to leave
I see it in your eyes
I'm preparing to grieve
And say my good byes
The others have gone
Leaving just you
You're becoming so weak
You want to go too
But you stand and stare
What are you thinking
Are you even aware
Your boat is sinking
Or did you already go
Leaving your flesh
Are you at peace somewhere
You can finally rest
"You've got me on my knees, Layla
Begging darling please, Layla"
