dog-eared

Iron & Wine - Flightless Bird, American Mouth

Then when the cops closed the fair
I cut my long baby hair
Stole me a dog-eared map
And called for you everywhere

Noah Kahan - Everywhere, Everything

I'll tell you where not to speed

It's been a long year and all of our book's pages dog-eared
We write out the ends on our palms, dear

Cara Dillon - Giving

A penny from your pocket
Hair for the locket
A book, dog-eared and tired
That might just hold a mystery unfolded

Ruoska - Dirt and Slush

Belongs only to death

The book of life is dog-eared1
Desire to go through it from cover to cover

• 1. "Hiirenkorvilla" refers to a book/magazine etc. which has been read so many times its pages are curled - literally it means "mouse's ears", but "koirankorvilla" is another term for that and it means "dog-eared".

Turnpike Troubadours - Lucille

But I wonder who's keepin' the baby tonight

Well, I'd walked off the stage to a old dog-eared page
Finally worth more than a day labour wage

Yiannis Parios - Selling house

Everything’s still the way you left it:
A book dog-eared
on the page you last opened

Pet Shop Boys - Girls Don't Cry

Lead a different way

In the pocket by her heart is a dog-eared Polaroid
A picture of a girl with her arm

Renan Luce - From the beginning

Can we pick up again as if nothing happened
Like at the dog-eared page of the book
That we’d closed the night before

The Velvet Underground - The Gift

Waldo Jeffers had reached his limit.
It was now mid-August which meant that he had been separated from Marsha for more than two months.
Two months, and all he had to show were three dog-eared letters and two very expensive long-distance phone calls.
True, when school had ended and she'd returned to Wisconsin and he to Locust, Pennsylvania she had sworn to maintain a certain fidelity.

Monika Brodka - Outro

Heaven is fleeing, I pine for its absence,
Its gay colors in dog-eared pages.

cleopatrick - ZUCK

The shit you said to me
Privately
Dog-eared page bedside for big man
Who told the moon to glow

St. Vincent - Happy Birthday, Johnny

Intended it as a cautionary tale
You said you saw yourself inside there
Dog-eared it like a how-to manual
Remember one summer we walked in Times Square

Jethro Tull - The Dog-Ear Years

Rusted and ropy
Dog-eared old copy
Vintage and classic

Paul and Storm - Write Like the Wind (George R. R. Martin)

I curse the day that my friend ever loaned me
An old dog-eared paperback called Game of Thrones
How could I know that this seed would grow into

Death Cab for Cutie - Rand McNally

And I wanted for nothing, I couldn't rent
We lived on whiskey and Twizzlers and youth′s discontent
With this Rand McNally atlas dog-eared and frayed
Like Old Testament verses that don't make sense in this decade

Magna Carta - Airport Song

Dozing with a coffee and a drooping cigaret
And the dog eared Sunday supplement
And still I can't forget

The Paper Kites - When It Hurts You

But all I hear is rings and rhymes
I know where you are
Dog eared books in the corner
Listening to songs

Piotr Szczepanik - Memories

You’ll always return to any place from where today you take
Memories, your second world,
The world of old times and dog-eared photos.

Alex Seel - Eyes Wider Than

Wider than the horizons distance
Wider than my dog-eared persistence
Wider than the long tired face

Cali - Al those things that will not return

And the blotter which drinks the spider
Scrawl on an exercise books which bends
Its dog-eared pages of little white squares
