Bound to Her - Matthew Logan Vasquez

Canvasing the woods

There’s somebody left to find

The dogs have got their scent

Well, hopefully it isn’t mine

She was found under the overpass

Wrapped up in a little tent

The judge threw out my conviction

For lack of evidence

Every chance they get

The press vilify the judge

Bring out a college graduate

To explain just who I was

Every second now

I’m bound to her

Every second now

I’m bound to her

He tricked my love to leave

Refused her self esteem

I never realized how much

She loved the shallow things

He was a nail in my foot

The rust raced through my veins

The last thing that that bastard saw

Was my smiling face

Every second now

I’m bound to her

Every second now

I’m bound to her

She loved me when I’m broke

When the glass pipe took away my hope

When the government pinched us for some coke

Busted out and married in Mexico

I still see you lookin' at me the way you did

And the promises you made

Death will do you proud

If another man gets in the way

Every second now

I’m bound to her

Every second now

I’m bound to her

Every second now

I’m bound to her

I’m bound to her
