Luke

Intro - piano, strings

Verse 1

I recall the first time, your sweet eyes on me,

A tiny shadow, always wanting to see.

If I spoke to another, you’d climb on my knee,

And shower me with kisses, just for me to be.

Chorus

Oh, sweet Luke, my dear, after sixteen years,

You calmed all my worries and dried all my tears.

A love so pure, banishing all fears,

Your memory lives on, through all of these years.

Verse 2

Our morning walks were a cherished delight,

In the park, bathed in sunshine, so happy and bright.

You’d wander and linger, with all of your might,

Whether we walked, or ran, or just bathed in the light.

Chorus

Oh, sweet Luke, my dear, after sixteen years,

You calmed all my worries and dried all my tears.

A love so pure, banishing all fears,

Your memory lives on, through all of these years.

Bridge

I’m so sorry, my sweet one, I couldn't help you more,

My heart broke in pieces right down to the core.

That decision was heavy, an ache I still bore,

But Mama loves you, forever and evermore.

Instrumental - piano, strings

Final Chorus

Oh, sweet Luke, my dear, after sixteen years,

You calmed all my worries and dried all my tears.

A love so pure, banishing all fears,

Your memory lives on, through all of these years.

Outro

Now you're in heaven, with sunshine so grand,

Surrounded by flowers, in a beautiful land.

With Dad and my family, a loving, warm band,

Resting peacefully, a paw in their hand.

Outro - piano fade
