"Dog Years is about a day I skipped class to stay in bed and make frozen pizza with a boy I loved. Dog Years is about dance parties in the kitchen. Dog Years is about chocolate milk and the Tompkins Square dog park. Dog Years is about a thank you note. Dog Years is about change, about loving and leaving and still loving, about trusting yourself, about trusting the universe, about being a good friend and never having enough time." - Rogers via Facebook


[Verse 1]
I count my time in dog years
Swimming in sevens
Slow dancing in seconds
Oh, and I'm the one that loves you
Oh, and I'm the one that loves you

[Verse 2]
I spend my time daydreaming
As sure as the sea
It's just you and me
Oh, and I'm the one that loves you
Oh, and I'm the one that loves you

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And if you had a bad week
Just let me touch your cheek
Oh, and I'll be there waiting
When you get frustrated
I know things are changing
But, darling, I'm saying
I'll be singing you in all of my songs

[Chorus 1]
Come what may
I'll still stay
Inside your mind
For all of time
Singing, ooh
We will be alright
In the afterlife

[Verse 2]
Of all that is shifting
And shaking my system
I know your rhythm
And I know, I know, I know, I know
That I'm the one that loves you
Oh, and I'm the one that loves you

[Pre-Chorus]
And if you had a bad week
Then I'll sing you to sleep
Oh, and I'll be there waiting
If you start to get jaded
I know things are changing
But, darling, I'm saying
I've been here all along

[Chorus 2]
Come what may
I'll still stay
Inside your mind
For all of time
Singing, ooh
We will be alright

[Chorus 3]
Not in vain
We'll still stay the same
Inside your mind
For all of time
Singing, ooh
We will be alright
In the afterlife
In the afterlife

[Outro]
I count my time in dog years, dog years, dog years, dog years, dog years
We will be alright (Dog years, dog years)
We will be alright (Dog years, dog years)
In the afterlife (Dog years, dog years, dog years, dog years)
Singing, baby, we will be alright (Dog years, dog years)
We will be alright
We will be alright
