He was a good boy, been gone about a year
All he did with us that first day was lie still, frozen in fear
But we all loved him, coaxed him out of his shell
He dug his way into our hearts, became the dog we knew so well
So well
But a dog is just an angel come down to visit us in disguise
We only have them for a moment, then we have to say goodbye
Don’t waste another minute, take every chance you get
Shower love upon those angels, and you’ll see they’re heaven sent
He had a lifetime, to us just 15 years
But he’s woven through the memories that were made during those years
Even the last one, when we didn’t leave his side
‘Til the vet said he was gone, still I lingered hade to say goodbye
Goodbye
Cause a dog is just an angel come down to visit us in disguise
We only have them for a moment, then they have to leave our side
So don’t waste another minute, I can tell you that it’s worth
Shower love upon those angels, you’ll get heaven hear on earth
<interlude>
Now there’s a new pup, and he’s coming home today
And even though we have a short list, well he still don’t have a name
But we will love him, in our hearts he will grow
He’ll be woven in the memories starting with this first hello
Hello
Yes this dog is just an angel come down to visit us in disguise
He’ll only stay for just a moment, then we’re gonna say goodbye
If you doubt just what I’m saying. best look him in the eyes
You’ll see a dog is just an angel, come down to visit us in disguise
Yes a dog is just an angel, come down to visit us in disguise
