[Verse 1]
I've got all the parts I've wished for
I've got everything I need
Sometimes I'm above water
But mostly I'm at sea

[Chorus]
Oh, slack jawed me
Can't you see?
There's so many rhythms and harmonies
And I'm walking the dog back

[Verse 2]
It's not like I got hurt or broken
Or ruined on the way
It's an ache and it shines through me
A swallow in a cage

[Chorus]
Oh, slack jawed me
Can't you see?
There's so many rhythms and harmonies
And I'm walking the dog back

[Bridge]
Is it a sign?
Or just a landmine?
Or a feeling roaming free?
It's overtaken me
Gonna hold it 'til it dries up
Or pocket it for another day
If it's me, I cannot give up
I'd rather that she stayed
[Chorus]
Oh, slack jawed me
Can't you see?
There's so many rhythms and harmonies
And I'm walking the dog back

[Verse 3]
I've got all the parts I've wished for
I've got everything I need
Sometimes I'm above water
But mostly I'm at sea

[Chorus]
Oh, slack jawed me
Can't you see?
There's so many rhythms and harmonies
And I'm walking the dog back
