We held you as a baby
We comforted you as you cried
We taught you the right things
And praised you when you tried
We looked into your big warm eyes
and showed you love everyday
We showered you with loyalty
And proved we would never go away
But through all the fun we had
The end grew near too soon
We held you close and told you how we
Loved you to the moon
You closed your peaceful eyes
and within that hour
Your innocent soul departed
To become a higher power
We laughed at all the memories
We cried through all the pain
We reminisced of all the days you were the sunshine over all the rain
You were always so loyal
Through and through
And were always full of life
how do we live without you?
now my sweet baby
Please watch over us with love
And keep us an empty seat
In the heavens up above
Some may not understand
And then Some may judge
But against those kind
We try to hold no grudge
She filled our hearts with love
and our minds agog
So try to understand
That maybe
Just maybe
That reliable loving baby
Was \'just a dog\'.
