Never feared near and dear
Doggie went a-stray
Days gone by nowhere to find
May come home someday
Recommend make amends
Don't let it get too long
Burning pride so deep inside
No time to right the wrong

​

Long-time coming and it's gonna be longer
Pictures only make the heart grow fonder
Good intentions but my inattention
Mirror's done cracked 
Shattered my reflection

​

Words are spoken become token 
Remember what you said
Justified if just I tried
The words ring in my head
Memories the melodies
Song already wrote
Not this time not on my
Vow already broke
 
Long-time coming and it's gonna be longer
Pictures only make the heart grow fonder
Good intentions but my inattention
Mirror's done cracked
Shattered my reflection

​

Brother from another mother died
Sister when she found out she cried
Doggie got too old to roam
Sniffed his own way back home
Get along home Rover 
Come on home Rover
Come home old dog
Come home
