Ollie

Intro

(Gentle acoustic guitar arpeggios, soft piano chords swell)

Verse 1

The day we brought you home, a tiny golden ball of fluff,

You fell asleep in Emma's lap, that car ride was enough.

Your little paws would twitch, dreaming puppy dreams so deep,

Right then we knew you were the heart, a promise we would keep.

Chorus

Oh, Ollie, my golden heart, it's true,

Twelve wonderful years we spent with you.

You filled our lives with joy, a love so pure and bright,

You truly made our house a home, our guiding, steady light.

Verse 2

Each morning with your tennis ball, you'd greet us at our feet,

Your whole body would wiggle, a daily, joyful treat.

Our evening walks through the park, a happy, simple stride,

You'd meet each friend with wagging tail, nowhere left to hide.

You'd rest your head upon our knee, whenever sadness came,

You just knew how to comfort us, softly whispering our name.

Chorus

Oh, Ollie, my golden heart, it's true,

Twelve wonderful years we spent with you.

You filled our lives with joy, a love so pure and bright,

You truly made our house a home, our guiding, steady light.

Verse 3

Those evening walks with all the kids, a special time for sure,

Along the path, we'd laugh and talk, finding joy outside our door.

"I love our evening walks," we'd often softly say,

You led the way, our happy friend, ending every day.

Chorus

Oh, Ollie, my golden heart, it's true,

Twelve wonderful years we spent with you.

You filled our lives with joy, a love so pure and bright,

You truly made our house a home, our guiding, steady light.

Bridge

You were the best boy, Ollie, with a love so true and deep,

Thank you for twelve years of joy, secrets our hearts will keep.

You truly made our house a home, a warmth we still can find,

We'll meet again someday, sweet boy, leaving no one behind.

Guitar Solo

(Acoustic guitar solo, melodic and poignant, with gentle piano and cello backing, building slightly in emotion before fading)

Final Chorus

Oh, Ollie, my golden heart, it's true,

Twelve wonderful years we spent with you.

You filled our lives with joy, a love so pure and bright,

You truly made our house a home, our guiding, steady light.

Outro

Now running free across endless green fields, so vast and wide,

Chasing butterflies and splashing where crystal streams reside.

I see you bounding through golden meadows, sun upon your fur,

Waiting at the rainbow bridge, with your favorite ball, my gentle cur.

(Soft hum, piano fades with a final, lingering acoustic guitar chord)
