Argo

Intro - acoustic guitar, piano

Verse 1

From the day you were born on our land, a sweet puppy so small

You grew to a gentleman, answering every call

With your beautiful long hair, a sight for all to see

Collecting every ball and stuffed toy, with such dignity

A loyal protector, with a temperament strong and true

Our beautiful Argo, always devoted to you

My first memory holds you, so gentle and grand

The best coated shepherd in all of the land

Chorus

Oh Argo, my Argo, for eleven years you stayed

Through every sunlit morning, no moment ever swayed

You were my faithful guardian, a love beyond compare

Now you rest among the stars, with wind in your long hair

Verse 2

Twenty-four seven, three-six-five, we were never apart

A bond woven deeply, etched forever in my heart

In Oregon's green fields, you and Bain would run free

And when he strayed too far, you’d come back concerned to me

My constant companion, by my side every day

Chasing sunbeams and shadows, along life's winding way

Every hour a special moment, a joy to recall

My gentle protector, standing strong through it all

Chorus

Oh Argo, my Argo, for eleven years you stayed

Through every sunlit morning, no moment ever swayed

You were my faithful guardian, a love beyond compare

Now you rest among the stars, with wind in your long hair

Bridge

I loved you the day you were born, a promise I made

And my love for you, sweet Argo, will never ever fade

For eternity, our spirits will surely intertwine

One day we’ll be together, a reunion truly divine

Instrumental - cello, piano

Final Chorus

Oh Argo, my Argo, for eleven years you stayed

Through every sunlit morning, no moment ever swayed

You were my faithful guardian, a love beyond compare

Now you rest among the stars, with wind in your long hair

Outro - piano fade

You are always with me, and the rest of the pack too

Especially when I whisper, your dear name, Argo

Running endless green fields, or sleeping so soundly and deep

Forever my puppy, a memory I’ll keep.
