Pink
11 years that were a winding road of ups and downs of love
Pink 's Story
Pink, a Shar Pei Pitbull with soft, deer-like hair and golden, kind eyes, was a silent, watchful protector, her velvet-like pink nose often nudging for attention. From a traumatized puppy, she blossomed into a steadfast companion, finding joy in daily chicken breasts, new stuffed animals, and walks in the park, always keeping her beloved person in sight. She held on bravely through difficult times, her fading golden eyes assuring all was well before she could finally run free, unburdened and unafraid.
— Remembered by Scott
Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar, piano
Verse 1
You didn't make a sound, just an occasional sigh
Golden eyes, so kind, watching my every move fly
Hair soft like a baby deer, with graceful, folded skin
A sense of calm you brought, from deep down within
Your velvet lips, a pink nose, so sweet and so unique
You'd follow close behind me, even when I couldn't speak
Listened to my stories, through every twist and turn
Silent by my side, a lesson I would learn
Chorus
Oh, Pink, my dear Pink, eleven winding years
You held my heart so steady, through all the joys and fears
A promise made in silence, a bond that will not fade
My guardian angel, in every choice I made
Verse 2
From work trips I'd return, you'd race down the hall
Licking from the backseat, answering duty's call
Never strayed too far in the park, always kept me in sight
A small, traumatized puppy, in the pound's barking night
Abandoned and alone, a frightened soul on view
I promised you a good life, a love that would see you through
Every stuffed animal, chicken breast, a queen in every way
Stand-offish like a cat, but you watched me every day
Chorus
Oh, Pink, my dear Pink, eleven winding years
You held my heart so steady, through all the joys and fears
A promise made in silence, a bond that will not fade
My guardian angel, in every choice I made
Bridge
You worried about me, held on through darkest times
Through a lawsuit's shadow, enduring pain and crimes
You stayed until I was strong, until we found our peace
No one can hurt you now, darling, the pain has found release
No more doctors, no more pills, the lake and mountains wait
Walk through tall grass freely, beyond the garden gate
Instrumental - acoustic guitar, piano, cello
Final Chorus
Oh, Pink, my dear Pink, eleven winding years
You held my heart so steady, through all the joys and fears
A promise made in silence, a bond that will not fade
My guardian angel, in every choice I made
Outro
Now you're running free, where fear can't find its way
Through fields of endless green, beneath a sunlit day
I'll be waiting for you, with macaroni and a treat
Watching pink sunsets, when our paths again will meet
You're not scared anymore, my sweet, gentle heart
Just peace and joyful whispers, right from the very start
Outro - acoustic guitar fade, soft hum
