Sammy 's Story
Sammy, the French bulldog with the most soulful eyes, brought endless comfort, from his nightly melting into loving arms at bedtime to his gentle snoring lullabies. He was a constant companion, whether watching the world from his office chair or between car seats, eagerly inspecting shopping bags, or doing his playful commando crawl across the grass on walks by the river. Every day with Sammy, filled with his unique 'speak' and joyful dashes along the beach, was a cherished journey of presence and connection.

Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar, ukulele
Verse 1
Your soulful eyes, they pierced right through,
Whispering "I love you," so soft and true.
A French bulldog spirit, strong and bold,
A story of comfort, sweetly told.
Every night, "Come on, bubs, it's time for bed,"
You'd gently lift your body, then rest your head.
My hands would slide beneath, with loving care,
You'd melt in my arms, drifting to sleep there.
Pre-Chorus
Through every season, every day's sweet art,
You held a special place within my heart.
Each moment with you, a treasured sight,
My darling Sammy, my guiding light.
Chorus
Oh, Sammy, my beautiful boy, through sunshine and rain,
Eleven and a half years, easing all pain.
Your love was a beacon, so bright and so free,
The greatest adventure, just you and me.
Verse 2
Each morning call, "Where's my boy? Where's my boy?"
You'd roll on your back, bringing pure joy.
With soulful eyes, you'd turn to my side,
For morning kisses and belly scratches, with nothing to hide.
Then I'd smile and say, "There he is, there he is,"
A perfect start, filled with loving bliss.
With loving ear nibbles, straight from your heart,
And gentle kisses, your tender art.
Pre-Chorus
Through every season, every day's sweet art,
You held a special place within my heart.
Each moment with you, a treasured sight,
My darling Sammy, my guiding light.
Chorus
Oh, Sammy, my beautiful boy, through sunshine and rain,
Eleven and a half years, easing all pain.
Your love was a beacon, so bright and so free,
The greatest adventure, just you and me.
Verse 3
Then spinning in circles, when walks were near,
A happy dance, banishing all fear.
Along the paths, you'd commando crawl,
A playful delight, standing so tall.
Chasing plastic bottles, with all of your might,
Under the sunshine, a glorious sight.
Each step with you, a journey of grace,
Finding adventure, in every new place.
Pre-Chorus
Through every season, every day's sweet art,
You held a special place within my heart.
Each moment with you, a treasured sight,
My darling Sammy, my guiding light.
Chorus
Oh, Sammy, my beautiful boy, through sunshine and rain,
Eleven and a half years, easing all pain.
Your love was a beacon, so bright and so free,
The greatest adventure, just you and me.
Verse 4
In car rides, you'd stand, so proud and so grand,
On the console, surveying the land.
Turning for kisses, a sweet, soft appeal,
Our bond in motion, so true and so real.
Then back at home, when the day was done,
You'd settle between my legs, my little one.
A quiet moment, so gentle and deep,
My loving Sammy, finally asleep.
Pre-Chorus
Through every season, every day's sweet art,
You held a special place within my heart.
Each moment with you, a treasured sight,
My darling Sammy, my guiding light.
Chorus
Oh, Sammy, my beautiful boy, through sunshine and rain,
Eleven and a half years, easing all pain.
Your love was a beacon, so bright and so free,
The greatest adventure, just you and me.
Bridge
Thank you for choosing me, my heart's true beat,
My greatest joy, my love, so bittersweet.
You taught me presence, compassion, and grace,
My teacher, my equal, in every space.
It was an honor, my faithful friend,
A bond like ours will never truly end.
Instrumental - banjo, acoustic guitar
Final Chorus
Oh, Sammy, my beautiful boy, through sunshine and rain,
Eleven and a half years, easing all pain.
Your love was a beacon, so bright and so free,
The greatest adventure, just you and me.
Outro
Still walking beside me, a spirit so clear,
Guiding and comforting, banishing fear.
Exploring new paths, with joy and with grace,
Found a warm, sunny spot, your beautiful place.
Resting now softly, no sorrow, no strife,
A beautiful chapter, our hearts entwined.
Until we walk together, beyond time and tide,
Know I love you, Sammy, forever inside.
Outro - ukulele fade, gentle piano
