Lincoln's Story
Lincoln, the beloved Golden Retriever, always brought joy by running down the stairs with a toy, his entire body wagging in greeting. He cherished quiet evenings, simply wanting to be near and feel the comfort of a gentle hand. Now, we imagine him happily barking at the birds in the trees, a spirit loved forever.
— Remembered by Kathleen
Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar, piano
Verse 1
I remember looking up the stairs, a common sight
You’d see me standing there, a joyful, golden light
Then you'd come bounding down, a happy, furry blur
Your whole body wiggling, beneath your shining fur
Your tail would wag so hard, a whirlwind of delight
Always with a toy, held gently, shining bright
You'd greet me at the door, with love beyond compare
A happy bark, a nudge, without a single care.
Chorus
Oh, Lincoln, sweet boy, for ten bright, shining years
You filled our home with laughter, chasing away all fears
A golden heart of sunshine, a spirit pure and true
We'll always keep a space inside our hearts for you.
Verse 2
As evening gently fell, the day would draw to close
You’d find your way beside me, wherever I had chose
Just wanting to be near, a comfort soft and deep
While quiet moments turned, to promises we’d keep
Your head against my hand, a gentle, knowing sigh
Content with just my touch, as minutes drifted by
Those quiet, tender times, a peace we loved to share
A loyal, loving soul, beyond compare.
Chorus
Oh, Lincoln, sweet boy, for ten bright, shining years
You filled our home with laughter, chasing away all fears
A golden heart of sunshine, a spirit pure and true
We'll always keep a space inside our hearts for you.
Bridge
Through every passing season, our bond will never cease
Your memory a comfort, bringing joy and peace
And as I whispered softly, "I’ll love you forever, dear"
That promise echoes still, so crystal kind and clear.
Instrumental - piano, acoustic guitar, glockenspiel
Final Chorus
Oh, Lincoln, sweet boy, for ten bright, shining years
You filled our home with laughter, chasing away all fears
A golden heart of sunshine, a spirit pure and true
We'll always keep a space inside our hearts for you.
Outro
Now you're free and joyful, beneath the endless skies
Barking at the birds, where happy spirits rise
Running through the fields, with not a single care
A golden spirit soaring, forever in the air.
Outro - acoustic guitar fade, soft piano
