Dusty's Story
Dusty, the handsome "one-eyed bandit" Shih Tzu, was a gentle, loving shadow with a silky black and white coat who faithfully waited for his person to come home. Mornings began with cherished belly rubs and cuddles, and his enthusiastic greetings at the door made every day brighter. Though deeply missed, he is now imagined running and playing freely, just beyond a rainbow, patiently awaiting a joyful reunion.
— Remembered by Wendy
Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar, harmonica
Verse 1
I remember first your gentle way,
A loving soul from the very first day.
Your silky coat of black and white,
Shone so soft beneath the light.
Just one eye, but never slow,
My little "one-eyed bandit," you would go.
My shadow true, beside me near,
You chased away every doubt and fear.
Chorus
Oh, Dusty, my good boy, my faithful friend,
For fifteen wonderful years, until the end.
You taught me love, pure and so deep,
Secrets of joy my heart will keep.
Verse 2
Those early mornings, cuddles bright,
Belly rubs, a sweet delight.
And when I'd walk back through the door,
Your happy greeting, I asked for no more.
Waited patiently, my best friend true,
My world was always better with you.
Chorus
Oh, Dusty, my good boy, my faithful friend,
For fifteen wonderful years, until the end.
You taught me love, pure and so deep,
Secrets of joy my heart will keep.
Bridge
If I could whisper just one last plea,
Knowing perfectly you would understand me.
"I love you so much, my buddy, so dear,"
"And I'll find you again someday, have no fear."
Instrumental - harmonica, acoustic guitar
Final Chorus
Oh, Dusty, my good boy, my faithful friend,
For fifteen wonderful years, until the end.
You taught me love, pure and so deep,
Secrets of joy my heart will keep.
Outro
Now you're at peace, the pain is gone,
Running free, from dusk till dawn.
With furry friends, beyond the bridge so bright,
Waiting for me, bathed in eternal light.
Outro - guitar fade
