Hound Pound

[Intro: Silvertongue]

I know, I know

I'll be a kind ear

Kind words can spill from me

Want to quell your fear

Want to stay right here

For once, I want to give, not just to receive

[Chorus: Silvertongue]

Later, take off your hat and

Later, take off your coat 'cause

I know, I know

Can't keep all the cold out

I know, I know

But I'll hold your hands just the same

The fire in me and us few

Forever, but I'll hold your-

[Verse 1: Sonny]

Wouldn't put it past him

Missed call, locked in a bathroom

Took that, didn't wanna ask him

Better put that back, yeah

Took it too far when the effort only put half in

Pull up your socks, parallel parking

Said it, tell them who's asking

Edit, pretending I'm laughing

Probably regret it, eyеs start darting

7 PM, outside St. Martin's

And I tell him it's not my departmеnt

Way back when, end of the garden

Finish your sentence, hate when I do that

Food for thought, now I've gotta chew that

Little tension, super bored

Forgot to mention, I hate when I do that

When you pop up, I press pause

Private caller, I was like, "Who's that?"

[Chorus: Silvertongue]

Later, take off your hat and

Later, take off your coat 'cause

I know, I know

Can't keep all the cold out

I know, I know

But I'll hold your hands just the same

The fire in me and us few

[Verse 2: Silvertongue]

I worry too, I worry about you and myself

Other people may not treat you with respect and good intentions

I carry my grief, the ones I love don't hide from me

Slow and fast waves of life

Days inside a golden cage

[Bridge: Silvertongue & Sonny]

Rain safe, my honest eyes

Your careful hands, our too-tight hugs

Rain safe, my honest eyes

Your careful hands, our too-tight hugs

Rain safe, my honest eyes (Penny by penny and pound by pound)

Your careful hands, our too-tight hugs (Taught me heaps, said figure it out)

Rain safe, my honest eyes (Penny by penny and pound by pound)

Your careful hands, our too-tight hugs (Saw your shadow walk around my town)

[Chorus: Silvertongue]

Later, take off your hat and

Later, take off your coat 'cause

I know, I know

Can't keep all the cold out

I know, I know

But I'll hold your hands just the same

The fire in me and us few

[Outro: Silvertongue]

Rain safe, my honest eyes

Your careful hands, our too-tight hugs
