Jingles

Intro - acoustic guitar, harmonica

Verse 1

In the morning light, you'd greet the day,

On the porch door, where you loved to play.

A tiny bite upon my sleepy toe,

A silent promise, watching spirits grow.

We found each other, broken and quite small,

Answering a silent, lonely call.

A tuxedo cat, with eyes so bright,

You brought me solace, shining through the night.

Chorus

Oh, Jingles, my dear friend, 11 years we shared,

A bond of love, beyond compare.

You gave me hope, you gave me faith and grace,

A forever part of my soul's embrace.

Verse 2

Every time I walked back through the door,

Your happy meows would echo on the floor.

A welcome sound, a comfort to my heart,

You played your loving, vital, saving part.

You gave me life, you gave me strength anew,

In every moment, I found truth in you.

For the short time we had, a precious art,

You healed the wounds, you mended every part.

Chorus

Oh, Jingles, my dear friend, 11 years we shared,

A bond of love, beyond compare.

You gave me hope, you gave me faith and grace,

A forever part of my soul's embrace.

Bridge

I love you forever, deep within my soul,

You made my fragmented spirit whole.

We'll meet again, when our journeys cease,

Down by the river, finding endless peace.

Harmonica Solo

Final Chorus

Oh, Jingles, my dear friend, 11 years we shared,

A bond of love, beyond compare.

You gave me hope, you gave me faith and grace,

A forever part of my soul's embrace.

Outro

In 2015, you passed in my arms, so still,

But in my heart, you linger, always will.

Now, by the river, gentle breezes blow,

I see you waiting, where the peaceful waters flow.

Outro - guitar fade
