I had a best friend, always by my side,
Through my lonely days she was my pride.
Every step we took, every road we roamed,
Now I'm left here wondering, how to make it home.
She's gone!
Oh, my old friend, where have you gone?
Left a space beside me, where you once belonged.
I still feel your spirit, in the breeze and the trees,
Missin' you more than words can ever ease.
We'd sit by the lake, watchin' time drift by,
Her head on my knee, with a calm in her eyes.
Chasin' dreams together, down those leafy trails,
Now it's just me and these quiet tales.
She's gone!
Oh, my old friend, where have you gone?
Left a space beside me, where you once belonged.
I still feel your spirit, in the breeze and the trees,
Missin' you more than words can ever ease.
I still hear her bark, in the laughter of the day,
Feel her warmth beside me, though she's far away.
She taught me of love, in a simple kind of way,
Now I carry her memory, each and every day.
The couch feels empty, where she used to lay,
Her tail wagging gently, as I'd call her name.
Time keeps moving, but her love remains,
In every step forward, in every old lane.
She's gone!
Oh, my old friend, where have you gone?
Left a space beside me, where you once belonged.
I still feel your spirit, in the breeze and the trees,
Missin' you more than words can ever ease.
So I sing these blues, soft and slow,
For my old companion, who helped my heart grow.
Gone but not forgotten, she's a part of me,
In every chord played, in every melody.
