Griffin's Story
Griffin, a spirited Scaggy mix, transformed his difficult beginnings, blossoming into a joyful companion whose clickety-clack toenails and post-bath zoomies filled the home with boundless energy. He adored every car ride, and his adventurous spirit was a constant reminder of the wonderful life he embraced. We imagine him now, peacefully sleeping in the sun and savoring endless cheeseburgers from Burger King, his cherished presence still felt throughout the house.
— Remembered by Caroline
Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar, piano
Verse 1
The clickedy clack of little paws on the floor
A welcome sound, we cherish and adore
After a bath, the zoomies would begin
A joyful whirlwind, a happy, loving grin
So eager for a ride, a wagging, happy tail
Our journey together, a love that would not fail.
Chorus
Oh, Griffin, our dear friend, for fourteen precious years
You chased away the shadows and calmed all our fears
Our sweet companion, loyal and so true,
Our hearts still beat with endless love for you.
Verse 2
A peach box, wired shut, abandoned by a fence
Your tiny life, a trial, it made no sense
We found you there, when hope seemed nearly gone,
And started our adventure, lasting till the dawn
A new beginning, a wonderful, sweet start,
You quickly found your place within our heart.
Chorus
Oh, Griffin, our dear friend, for fourteen precious years
You chased away the shadows and calmed all our fears
Our sweet companion, loyal and so true,
Our hearts still beat with endless love for you.
Bridge
We whisper "We love you," though you're no longer near,
Your gentle spirit, in our house, we still can hear.
A phantom click, a shadow in the sun,
Your loving memory, our life's work well begun.
Instrumental - piano, distant strings
Final Chorus
Oh, Griffin, our dear friend, for fourteen precious years
You chased away the shadows and calmed all our fears
Our sweet companion, loyal and so true,
Our hearts still beat with endless love for you.
Outro - guitar fade
Now sleeping in the sun, without a single care,
With cheeseburgers from Burger King, waiting for you there.
Our sweet Gur-if-in, at peace, eternally bright,
Dreaming of car rides, in endless, soft sunlight.
