Berte

Intro - ukulele, piano

Verse 1

The first time we met, a sweet gentle gaze

A Cavalier's heart, full of comforting ways

You showed us a love, so pure and so true

Our world was made brighter, Berte, because of you

Chorus

Oh, Berte, my sweet, my beautiful friend

Twelve years of your love, right to the end

A joy in our lives, a light shining bright

You filled every day with pure, pure delight

Verse 2

When early evening arrived, the day winding low

We'd settle in close, watching stories flow

Your head on my lap, a comforting sigh

Our special 'nite nite', beneath a soft sky

A gentle companion, always so near

Chasing away every worry and fear

Chorus

Oh, Berte, my sweet, my beautiful friend

Twelve years of your love, right to the end

A joy in our lives, a light shining bright

You filled every day with pure, pure delight

Bridge

Thank you, Berte, thank you my sweetest love of my life

You brought comfort and peace, through all of our strife

We miss you so bad, with every new day

But your beautiful spirit will always stay

Instrumental - ukulele, piano

Final Chorus

Oh, Berte, my sweet, my beautiful friend

Twelve years of your love, right to the end

A joy in our lives, a light shining bright

You filled every day with pure, pure delight

Outro

Now with your siblings, running free in the light

Beyond the horizon, a glorious sight

In a beautiful place, where joy will remain

No sorrow, no parting, no heartache or pain

Outro - ukulele fade
