Maxx's Story
Maxx, the handsome Lab-Shepherd, was a devoted companion, his nails clicking as he followed every corner of the house, even helping with the trash and mail. His unique snoring, eyes open and breathing hard on a lap, was as memorable as his enthusiastic greetings after work and special morning exploring times. "You're okay papi, let's go mimis," were the tender last words to this precious boy, now running free from pain.
— Remembered by Jesus
Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar
Verse 1
I remember when you first came home, a tiny pup, so grand
Your nails would click across the floor, my loyal, best friend
You'd snore with open eyes sometimes, a comforting, soft sound
And breathe so hard upon my lap, the sweetest dog around
Your spoiled bark, a happy plea, a signal loud and clear
And at the doorbell, you'd protect, banishing all fear
Chorus
Oh, Maxx, my handsome boy, it's true, you filled my life with light
For thirteen precious years with you, every single day and night
A loyal heart, a gentle soul, a love that won't depart
Maxx, you'll always have a hold upon my breaking heart
Verse 2
Our morning walks, fifteen minutes, exploring every path
The way you'd greet me at the door, after a long day's wrath
You'd follow me through every room, a shadow close behind
Asking for water with your gaze, a knowing, clever mind
Helping with mail and taking trash, your car rides, our long strolls
These simple moments, etched in time, forever fill my soul
Chorus
Oh, Maxx, my handsome boy, it's true, you filled my life with light
For thirteen precious years with you, every single day and night
A loyal heart, a gentle soul, a love that won't depart
Maxx, you'll always have a hold upon my breaking heart
Bridge
In those last moments, soft and low, I whispered close to you
"You're okay papi, let's go mimis," brave and strong and true
"Who is the most handsome boy?" I'd ask, you'd softly sigh
My Maxx, my love, it's not goodbye, but see you by and by
Instrumental - acoustic guitar, piano
Final Chorus
Oh, Maxx, my handsome boy, it's true, you filled my life with light
For thirteen precious years with you, every single day and night
A loyal heart, a gentle soul, a love that won't depart
Maxx, you'll always have a hold upon my breaking heart
Outro - acoustic guitar fade
Now you are running, free from pain, with legs that soar and fly
Chasing sunshine, in the rain, beneath a boundless sky
Peaceful slumber, soft and deep, my good boy, rest serene
In every memory I keep, you're always in between.
