Intro - piano, synth pads

Verse 1

From the very start, you were close to me

My dear Staffie friend, for the world to see

Like my own true shadow, you'd sit on my knee

Always wanting kisses, wild and free

When I'd come home weary, from the day's long grind

A joyful sound you'd make, one of a kind

So much love and comfort, in your heart I'd find

A bond so deep and pure, leaving worries behind.

Chorus

Oh, Nitro, my sweet boy, twelve wonderful years

You dried away all of my silent tears

A loyal companion, through laughter and fears

My love for you echoes, through all of the spheres.

Verse 2

When night would descend, and the day was done

You'd lay down beside me, beneath the moon and sun

So close, like one skin, till the morning begun

Our peaceful slumber, a battle won

Then morning would break, with a gentle soft sigh

Your warm little kisses, would open my eye

A signal for breakfast, as hours flew by

Sweet memories cherished, beneath the blue sky.

Chorus

Oh, Nitro, my sweet boy, twelve wonderful years

You dried away all of my silent tears

A loyal companion, through laughter and fears

My love for you echoes, through all of the spheres.

Bridge

You would be terribly missed, we loved you so dear

We released you from pain, to vanish all fear

Over the Rainbow Bridge, your spirit is clear

A promise of reunion, in the coming year.

No more struggle now, just peace you will know

A beautiful spirit, that continues to glow.

Instrumental - piano, cello

Final Chorus

Oh, Nitro, my sweet boy, twelve wonderful years

You dried away all of my silent tears

A loyal companion, through laughter and fears

My love for you echoes, through all of the spheres.

Outro

Now you're pain-free, no more burdens to bear

Walking to your brothers, a joyful affair

Zeus and Diesel await, with love beyond compare

Running through bright fields, without a care.

All together once more, in heaven's soft light

My sweet Nitro, resting, peaceful and bright.

Outro - piano fade
