Lyrics

She wakes about the same time every day
With just me on her mind she softly lays
Upon her bed disheveled from her sleep
Dreaming dreams I wonder if she keeps

Her hair brushes my face and I'm awake
Her loving eyes meet mine, then we off we take, to the kitchen, to pour that coffee black. Then we sit out on the redwood porch out back

Well I've been so damn lucky,
Correction, I've been blessed..
To have this raging beauty love a beast of so much less..
And nothing yet that I can do or say
Has made her precious heart run away

She puts me first and I can do no wrong
She listens close to each and every song
Other men they love her, but she'd never stray. She's a one man kinda girl, she's just that way

Well I've been so damn lucky,
Correction I've been blessed..
To have this raging beauty love a beast of so much less
And nothing yet that I can do or say
Has made her precious heart run away

music....instrumental

She never wines about our money or how we spend. Even when my gigs can't pay the rent. Her devotion to me makes me feel so small.. How could I deserve a girl like her at all??

I've been so damn lucky,
Correction I've been blessed..
To have this raging beauty love a beast of so much less
And nothing yet that I can do or say
has made her precious heart run away

Well I know that I'm no expert
In everything I say
but a testament to love it can be witnessed here today, Cause the truest friend that's yet to come along
has been the friendship between me and my ol' dog

I've been so damn lucky,
Correction I've been blessed..
To have this raging beauty love a beast of so much less.. And nothing yet that I can do or say, has made her precious heart run away

Yes, nothing yet that I can do or say
has made my precious Sadie run away
