Jasper

Intro - piano, acoustic guitar

Verse 1

The day you came, a yellow coat so bright,

A Labrador's true heart, a warming light.

With duck retrieves, and joyful, splashing swims,

Your loyalty shone through, past all the whims.

Those sweet brown eyes, a spirit ever true,

Your gentle licks and wags, forever new.

A disposition sweet, beyond compare,

No fading love, just comfort everywhere.

Chorus

Oh, Mr. Jasper, friend so dear,

For eleven years, you banished every fear.

Your paw prints left upon my soul,

Making my fractured spirit whole.

Verse 2

We watched the sunrise, quiet and profound,

Over the duck blind, on hallowed ground.

Your gentle presence, strong and ever near,

Wiped every worried, silent tear.

The licks and wags, they never lost their zest,

A heart so pure, put to the loving test.

You taught me kindness, simple and so deep,

Promises your sweet memory will keep.

Chorus

Oh, Mr. Jasper, friend so dear,

For eleven years, you banished every fear.

Your paw prints left upon my soul,

Making my fractured spirit whole.

Bridge

Go run free now, no more suffering, no more pain,

Until we meet in Heaven's gentle rain.

My whispered prayer, carried on the breeze,

One day, my love, we'll find eternal ease.

Instrumental - soft strings, piano

Final Chorus

Oh, Mr. Jasper, friend so dear,

For eleven years, you banished every fear.

Your paw prints left upon my soul,

Making my fractured spirit whole.

Outro

Now running free in fields of golden hue,

Chasing your dreamscape, skies forever blue.

A peaceful rest, beyond all earthly sighs,

Waiting there for me, in paradise.

Outro - piano fade
