A 60 Year Old Woman Wrote This About Her Dog

Lyrics

[Intro] This is dedicated to Darcy [Verse 1] My name is Darcy and I'd like to tell my story About my best friend who's in another category, see I was always happy, I took care of myself I enjoyed life, I always stayed in good health When I was 52, my telephone rang My doctor told me the results from my biopsy came He sounded so upset, hurt by his tone He told me I had cancer in my bones I was in shock; I was out of breath Up until this moment I was never scared of death But when you find out, you have cancer It's like the grim reaper rings your doorbell and waits for you to answer When I was going through chemotherapy My husband walked in with a gift just for me It was a puppy, instantly I loved him My sweetest baby boy I named him Muffins [Hook] From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end You're my best friend [Verse 2] My medication used to keep me up at night I felt so weak didn't have the strength to fight Muffins could feel it, he understood my plight And he radiated energy that made me feel alright At times, I swore death was coming soon, it's what I feared I'd snuggle Muffins and quietly let out my tears I'd tell him you are such a precious little doggy I felt him pull the sickness out of my body He took away my pain He took away my tears I finally got the phone call after a couple years My doctor said I have some great news I'm about to wipe away your pain and your blues I want you to sit down and listen Darcy, our cancer has gone into remission I cried tears of joy I felt like I could live forever I swear the love from my sweet puppy made me feel better [Hook] From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end (You're my best friend) [Verse 3] Not even 9 months later Muffins started showing strange behaviour He wouldn't eat, he wouldn't play, he wouldn't move This wasn't my baby, he wasn't in his best mood His heart beat sounded frantic in his chest, so We took him to the vet and ran some tests The Vet didn't call me back for 2 weeks But when he called me I simply couldn't speak I remember when the telephone rang I remember being crushed by the pain He sounded so upset, so hurt by his tone He told me that Muffins that his cancer in his bones It shocked me, broke the heart inside my ribs It's the cancer left my body and entered his Within a year, my baby boy was gone I hope I can him alive forever with this song [Hook] From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end You're my best friend You're my best friend From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end From the beginning I knew I'd love you until the end (You're my best friend) [Outro] Dedicated to Muffins and Darcy
