George's Story
With his piercing, knowing eyes, George the Border Collie grew into a beautiful boy who cherished his routines. He loved his favourite back seat spot in the car, riding the quad bike to check the letterbox, and dog paddling in the dam's cool shallows after busy days running free on the farm. Now, he rests peacefully on a soft bed, with endless rabbits to chase, forever close in heart.

Lyrics
Intro - piano, acoustic guitar
Verse 1
You weren't the puppy I had in mind
But soon the best of friends I'd find
Your piercing eyes, so deep and bright
Reflected love with all their light
A special knowing in your gaze
Guiding me through all our days
My beautiful boy, a loyal heart
Right from the very, very start
Chorus
Oh, George, my beautiful boy, it's true
Sixteen amazing years with you
A silent vow, a bond so deep
The cherished memories I will keep
Oh, George, my heart still aches for you
My loyal, beautiful boy, it's true
Verse 2
Each journey starting, near or far
You had your spot inside my car
The back seat waiting, just for you
For every adventure we went through
The quad bike rumbling, engine low
To check the letter box, off we'd go
Your favourite ride, a daily quest
You always knew that you were blessed
Chorus
Oh, George, my beautiful boy, it's true
Sixteen amazing years with you
A silent vow, a bond so deep
The cherished memories I will keep
Oh, George, my heart still aches for you
My loyal, beautiful boy, it's true
Verse 3
My constant companion, a friend so true,
A special bond, just me and you.
You shared your warmth with all you met,
But for me, your purest love you kept.
Now Jessie and Sophie, they don't quite see,
Why you're no longer here with me.
Little Sophie sees your face so bright,
And wonders where you sleep at night.
Bridge
Now in the fields of heaven's light
A rabbit waits for you to sight
Beside me in my bed at night
You'd sleep so soundly, warm and tight
After a day of running free
Forever, George, you'll be with me
Cello, piano
Final Chorus
Oh, George, my beautiful boy, it's true
Sixteen amazing years with you
A silent vow, a bond so deep
The cherished memories I will keep
Oh, George, my heart still aches for you
My loyal, beautiful boy, it's true
Outro
I see you swimming in your dam,
The cool water, peaceful and calm
Just dog-paddling in shallow blue
My beautiful boy, I still see you
Running free in fields above
Surrounded by eternal love
Outro - piano fade
