Josh Ritter - Still Beating lyrics
[Josh Ritter - Still Beating lyrics]
I know the dog days of the summer
Have you ten-to-one outnumbered
Seems like everybody up and left
And they’re not coming back
The shadow that you’re standing
On’s still here
Sometimes that’s all that you can ask
And your heart’s still beating
You’re not the fastest draw in town now
How many times you been shot down now?
Seems like everybody else could see
The things you never did
But, if you could yourself
You’d probably never have made it
Through the things you did
And your heart's still beating
I know the dog days of the summer
Have you ten-to-one outnumbered
It seems like everybody else saw
Trouble sneaking up behind
They left you half dead in the street
But that just means you’re half alive
And your heart’s still beating
Still beating, still beating
Still beating, still beating
Still beating, still beating
And your heart’s still beating yeah
Have you ten-to-one outnumbered
Seems like everybody up and left
And they’re not coming back
The shadow that you’re standing
On’s still here
Sometimes that’s all that you can ask
And your heart’s still beating
You’re not the fastest draw in town now
How many times you been shot down now?
Seems like everybody else could see
The things you never did
But, if you could yourself
You’d probably never have made it
Through the things you did
And your heart's still beating
I know the dog days of the summer
Have you ten-to-one outnumbered
It seems like everybody else saw
Trouble sneaking up behind
They left you half dead in the street
But that just means you’re half alive
And your heart’s still beating
Still beating, still beating
Still beating, still beating
Still beating, still beating
And your heart’s still beating yeah
