Tyson's Story
Tyson, the beloved Boxer and "Buddy Boy," was a constant shadow, following from room to room and showering morning love with kisses and scratches by the bed. He was always present for the homeschooled children, whether on the front porch or beneath his favorite oak tree. Now, we envision him joyfully running, throwing toys, and leaping high, before finding a peaceful rest in the cool shade of an oak.
— Remembered by Melissa
Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar, harmonica
Verse 1
My loyal shadow, following me each day
From room to room, you'd never stray
Then by my bed, as morning light would gleam
For morning love, a sweet and happy dream
Chorus
Oh, Tyson, my dear friend, for twelve sweet years you stayed
A loyal Boxer, in sun and gentle shade
Your paw prints on my heart, they never fade away
You're my best Buddy Boy, until my dying day
Verse 2
With homeschooled children, you were always near
A part of everything, banishing all fear
On the front porch, we'd watch the world go by
Or underneath your mighty oak, beneath the sky
Chorus
Oh, Tyson, my dear friend, for twelve sweet years you stayed
A loyal Boxer, in sun and gentle shade
Your paw prints on my heart, they never fade away
You're my best Buddy Boy, until my dying day
Verse 3
A constant comfort, through the quietest hours
Your gentle breathing, among life's blooming flowers
With watchful eyes, a steadfast, loyal friend
A love like yours, that truly knew no end
Chorus
Oh, Tyson, my dear friend, for twelve sweet years you stayed
A loyal Boxer, in sun and gentle shade
Your paw prints on my heart, they never fade away
You're my best Buddy Boy, until my dying day
Bridge
You are my best Buddy Boy, Tyson, true and kind
Wait for me, my sweet companion, leave no one behind
Lead me to Jesus when my earthly journey's done
Together we'll be, 'til the rising of the sun
Instrumental - banjo, acoustic guitar
Final Chorus
Oh, Tyson, my dear friend, for twelve sweet years you stayed
A loyal Boxer, in sun and gentle shade
Your paw prints on my heart, they never fade away
You're my best Buddy Boy, until my dying day
Outro
Now you're running free, throwing toys up in the air
Leaping high to catch them, without a single care
Lying in the shade of an oak, so cool and deep
While memories of you, in my heart I'll always keep
Outro - acoustic guitar fade
