[Verse 1]
You used to scratch the door at dawn
Cold nose on my hand
Then gone
Old red collar by my shoes
Empty leash
Too much room
[Chorus]
Good boy
Mickey
Where’d you run to now?
I still set your bowl down somehow
Talk to shadows on the kitchen floor
Good boy
Mickey
Guess you’re running free
Tail up high where I can’t see
But I still wait by the door (for you)
[Verse 2]
Your fur still on my faded coat
Tennis ball by the garden stones
I walk that same old evening route
Count the steps
But I can’t count you
[Chorus]
Good boy
Mickey
Where’d you run to now?
I still set your bowl down somehow
Talk to shadows on the kitchen floor
Good boy
Mickey
Guess you’re running free
Tail up high where I can’t see
But I still wait by the door (for you)
[Bridge]
If there’s a field past all this rain
Chasing sticks
No tired legs
No pain
Save a spot beneath some tree
Till I get there
Think of me (think of me)
[Chorus]
Good boy
Mickey
Where’d you run to now?
I still set your bowl down somehow
Talk to shadows on the kitchen floor
Good boy
Mickey
Guess you’re running free
Tail up high where I can’t see
But I still wait by the door
Yeah
I still wait by the door (for you)
