| You and I bonded almost the first day you came home It was me you listened to and to me alone No matter where I'd walk you weren't far behind You were my baby and I was yours in kind We knew each other well there was no question of that You seemed to know when I was searching for my keys, bag or hat When I was about to leave I'd tell you goodbye You turned and walked away with a deep sigh No sooner was I out the door when you tore paper bags Went to the closet and tossed all the rags Got into minor mischief cause you had nothing else to do Cause I wasn't there talking or fussing over you You howled I love you and sang in tune with our bird Or you whispered on signal so not to be heard But then you grew older and ill you became When I helped you over the ridge it was never the same You are now gone and no longer following behind You were the best friend I ever did find In my life you were a very big part With your passing you'll remain in my heart FUREVER |
