Coy Dogs Lyrics - Before & After - Carrie Newcomer

There have been too many leavings to list in one place 

Too many arrivals to ever retrace 

And all who have wandered have not fallen from grace 

Just done a few things they'd like to erase 

And met with their shadows face to face 

 

Up on the ridge top a coy dog cries 

It's the mother a coyote with bright yellow eyes 

A coy dog's half friendly the other half wild 

Half is homebody and half is streetwise 

It can't help its nature but God know it tries 

 

[Chorus] 

Star light star bright 

All the dogs are restless tonight 

Leave on the porch light 

I'll be home after midnight 

 

It's all blessed and restless and up for debate 

A season and chance to alter a fate 

But a moment can pass just because it can't wait 

And time hits you hard with terrible weight 

Like a rock to the forehead stamped with "Too Late" 

 

[Chorus] 

 

Our vision is often faulty 

We see but through the glass darkly 

And yet, we know deep down 

When we hear the sound 

When it speaks our name 

 

The moon eats its center until it dissolves 

Then conquers the shadow with a single resolve 

Here's to hoping for wholeness no matter how small 

Asking the questions that cannot be solved 

And following the ache of unnamable call 

 

[Chorus]
