Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar, harmonica
Verse 1
With a heart so brave and true, a Mastiff Staffy blend,
You were the best friend I ever knew, my steadfast, loyal friend.
Through darkest days, you stood by me, a comfort strong and deep,
I don't know where I'd truly be, if not for promises you'd keep.
Chorus
Oh, Mikey, my sweet boy, it wasn't nearly long enough,
You filled my world with pure joy, and made my spirit tough.
My heart aches for your gentle paw, your endless, loving gaze,
You taught me life's most precious law, through all our cherished days.
Verse 2
Each moment shared, a precious gift, no matter day or night,
Your presence caused my soul to lift, and filled my life with light.
Now days feel hollow, dark and gray, though new friends softly gleam,
No one can take your place away, you live within my dream.
Chorus
Oh, Mikey, my sweet boy, it wasn't nearly long enough,
You filled my world with pure joy, and made my spirit tough.
My heart aches for your gentle paw, your endless, loving gaze,
You taught me life's most precious law, through all our cherished days.
Verse 3
I often wish my life was done, to be with you once more,
The greatest love beneath the sun, I've never known before.
I'd give up all I hold so dear, for just one moment's grace,
To wipe away this bitter tear, and find our meeting place.
Bridge
Oh, Mikey, my sweet boy, I'm sorry for that final day,
I wasn't there to ease your pain, I let you slip away.
My heart is broken, torn and raw, I hope you understand,
Please tell me you're still close at hand, and promise we'll meet again.
Harmonica solo, acoustic guitar
Final Chorus
Oh, Mikey, my sweet boy, it wasn't nearly long enough,
You filled my world with pure joy, and made my spirit tough.
My heart aches for your gentle paw, your endless, loving gaze,
You taught me life's most precious law, through all our cherished days.
Outro
You're still beside me, warm and near, a spirit strong and true,
You watch over and wipe each tear, my love still goes to you.
Forever in my heart you'll be, my greatest, cherished gift,
Running wild and finally free, my broken heart you lift.
Outro - guitar fade
