You were always there for me
Yet…, sadly I took you for granted
You gave me love, unconditionally
You were all I could’ve ever wanted
I’d call for you and you’d come running
So eager just to please me
What it is you ever saw in me
I’ll never know, but please believe me
I know how lucky I have been
To have had you here with me
My best friend in all the world
Such happiness you gave to me
The time has come to let you go
And I pray somehow you’ll know
Just how greatly missed you’ll be
Because I loved you so
My heart is anguished, so I cry
For no one can take your place
So hard for me to say goodbye
I'll always see your face
In peace my pet, may you rest
You were the very best
A final chance to hold you in my arms
Where you died upon my chest
I can't believe how deep the pain
and how hard your death has hit me
It hurts to learn to live without
My precious dog, sweet tippy
Tippy, The Greatest Dog in all the World!
