	Story Behind the Song I volunteered at the local humane society one summer. My job was to walk the dogs. Each dog was only allowed a five minute walk because there were so many and not enough people to exercise them. One dog in particular caught my eye because of her dignified composure and sweet disposition - Lydia. Lyrics Lydia All alone Kept in a cage No home of your own Lydia Try to calm your mind A while longer now You may have your time They take you out And spin you round They pick you up Then put you back down Lydia Never meant to be An accidental blessing Waiting patiently Lydia Bruised yet standing tall Ever hopeful A lesson to us all They take you out And spin you round They pick you up Then put you back down Lydia Can’t they understand You don’t need much Just a warm bed and a kind hand Lydia What’s gonna be Will someone keep you Will someone set you free They take you out And spin you round They pick you up Then put you back down
