Oakley

Intro - ukulele, acoustic guitar

Verse 1

A fat little Shih Tzu, with secrets to keep

Though small in your stature, your spirit ran deep

You thought you were fierce, a big dog in disguise

With that judging look in your sweet, knowing eyes

Loved walks on the property, wind in your fur

And riding the John Deere, a happy little blur

My best friend, through every sunshine and rain

You eased every heartache, you quieted pain.

Chorus

Oh, Oakley, my Oakley, so precious and true

Eleven amazing years, spent here with you

A celebration of joy, a love that won't cease

My sweet baby girl, now finding your peace.

Verse 2

Our mornings were sacred, a comforting hold

Your cuddles, a story that never grew old

A routine you honored, you'd check on my Mom

Before our own walk, a peaceful, sweet balm

Your toys were your treasures, especially one friend

A stuffed horse you loved right until the very end

Such simple delights, a heart full of glee

Your playful spirit, forever with me.

Chorus

Oh, Oakley, my Oakley, so precious and true

Eleven amazing years, spent here with you

A celebration of joy, a love that won't cease

My sweet baby girl, now finding your peace.

Bridge

You were the keeper of secrets, a piece of my soul

You made all my broken parts feel perfectly whole

Though heartache lingers, and tears gently fall

I will see you again, babygirl, answering love's call.

Ukulele Solo

Final Chorus

Oh, Oakley, my Oakley, so precious and true

Eleven amazing years, spent here with you

A celebration of joy, a love that won't cease

My sweet baby girl, now finding your peace.

Outro

Now playing with Marley, on soft grassy ground

Bobby and Dad watch you, love all around

Ears rubbed every so often, so many new friends

And Chuck by your side, a reunion that transcends

At peace by a stream, where the soft grasses sway

My Oakley, forever, you're just a thought away.
