Alex

Intro - grand piano, cello

Verse 1

The first time our eyes met, a memory so clear,

Such soulful depths you held, calming every fear.

A gentle, soft cuddle, a love beyond compare,

A quiet, furry shadow, always standing near.

You brought a peace so quiet, a comfort to my soul,

Making my broken pieces, finally feel whole.

Through all the passing seasons, your love did never cease,

A loyal, tender spirit, a symbol of true peace.

Chorus

Oh, Alex, my dearest, for fourteen precious years,

You chased away the shadows, dried away my tears.

A love like a river, flowing strong and true,

My heart will always remember, every moment with you.

Verse 2

Each day returning home, a wagging, happy sound,

Waiting at the doorway, the best dog to be found.

With joyful little greeting, a tender, soft embrace,

A special, daily moment, in that familiar place.

Your presence filled my living, with comfort and with grace,

Leaving not an empty spot, you filled up every space.

Those snuggles on the sofa, a loving, warm display,

Brightened every evening, and made my darkest day.

Chorus

Oh, Alex, my dearest, for fourteen precious years,

You chased away the shadows, dried away my tears.

A love like a river, flowing strong and true,

My heart will always remember, every moment with you.

Bridge

You are my sun, my moon, my brightest shining star,

I'll love you now and always, no matter where you are.

You are my heart, my everything, a bond that will not fade,

The sweetest, purest promise, a love eternally made.

Instrumental - cello, grand piano

Final Chorus

Oh, Alex, my dearest, for fourteen precious years,

You chased away the shadows, dried away my tears.

A love like a river, flowing strong and true,

My heart will always remember, every moment with you.

Outro

Now running free and weightless, with no pain to bear,

Playing with your daddy, in fields beyond compare.

Looking down with kindness, from up above,

My sweet Alex sleeping, surrounded by our love.

Outro - grand piano fade
