about

A bit of a light hearted song for all pet lovers, particularly dog owners:

lyrics

You were all I lived for, my one abiding joy,
Played some games together, just you me and a toy.
Now all that is over, we are history
Those foolish ones are telling me, now I'm free

Chorus: You led me such a merry dance around the block with you
I don’t where I’m going, or what I’m going to do,
You led me such a merry dance around the block with you.

I preferred the times when you were all I had,
Though you were mischievous, you were never really bad.
You were always faithful, tried so hard to please,
Your face is so appealing, you you’re such a tease.

Chorus:

I’ve got a few mementoes; I keep them in a box,
I wish that you were here now, you wily cunning fox.
Therein lays my problem, the biggest one of all,
Should I get another dog to chase and fetch the ball.

Chorus:
