shelby

your paws tap soft on the wooden floor,
a sound that's new, not like before.
you're clumsy, wild and full of cheer,
a little laughter where there once was just tears.

but you bring a little light in the dark,
a little wag, a little spark.
no, you'll never fill her shoes,
but you chase away a piece of these blues.
you're not her, but you're here
and that's enough, my dear.

i won't compare you, that wouldn't be fair,
her memory's a song that'll always be there.
but you got your own tune, soft and sweet,
a new rythm my heart learning to beat.

but you bring a little light in the dark,
a little wag, a little spark.
no, you'll never fill her shoes,
but you chase away a piece of these blues.
you're not her, but you're here
and that's enough, my dear.

you don't replace, you don't erase,
you're just here, filling this space.
but you bring a little light in the dark,
a little wag, a little spark.
no, you'll never fill her shoes,
but you chase away a piece of these blues.
you're not her, but you're here
and that's enough, my dear.
