Billy's Story
Billy, the Miniature Schnauzer, was a burst of joy, always rushing to the door with an enthusiastic greeting before settling right next to you on the couch. Mornings were especially cherished, walking down the driveway together to feed the horses. Now, he runs free without pain, forever keeping a watchful eye on all the squirrels and rabbits, surrounded by the boundless love he inspired.
— Remembered by Heidi
Lyrics
Intro - piano, strings
Verse 1
I remember when you'd hear my car draw near
A tiny schnauzer, banishing all fear
Running to the door, a joyful, happy sound
The sweetest greeting ever could be found
Then a leap onto the couch, beside me you would be
Your furry warmth a comfort, just for me
A loyal shadow, always by my side
With nowhere in this big wide world to hide
Chorus
Oh, Billy, dear Billy, my sweet little friend
For six years and eight months, our journey did extend
Though silent now, your love still softly gleams
You visit me often in my fondest dreams
Verse 2
Each morning when the sun began to climb
We'd walk the driveway, marking out our time
To feed the gentle horses, a routine we knew
Just you and I, a moment fresh and new
Your tiny beard held wisdom, eyes so bright
You filled our home with laughter, pure delight
A curious spirit, brave and always keen
The best companion anyone had seen
Chorus
Oh, Billy, dear Billy, my sweet little friend
For six years and eight months, our journey did extend
Though silent now, your love still softly gleams
You visit me often in my fondest dreams
Verse 3
You loved to venture 'OUTSIDE', keen and bright,
For every ride, your joy would take its flight.
My truck's own rumble, you alone would know,
Before I even reached our home below.
A playful heart, for rabbits, squirrels you'd chase,
With loyalty and love, in every space.
A snuggler true, right close against my chest,
Your gentle presence, always brought me rest.
Bridge
I will love you till the end of time, I softly say
And know you're checking squirrels and rabbits, far away
No pain can touch you now, you're strong and truly free
Your spirit dances brightly, endlessly
Instrumental - piano, strings
Final Chorus
Oh, Billy, dear Billy, my sweet little friend
For six years and eight months, our journey did extend
Though silent now, your love still softly gleams
You visit me often in my fondest dreams
Outro
Running free, no accident to mar your stride
With open fields and endless space to hide
A peaceful slumber, waiting for us there
Billy, my sweet boy, beyond compare
Outro - piano fade
