[Verse 1]
I knelt down, saw your uncertain eyes through that cage. I spoke softly, told you it would be okay. The door opened wide and you came running, into my life. I Felt something deep inside to this day I can't explain. But I knew I would for sure, never be the same.

[Chorus]
If I had one wish it would be, to start over, you and me. I would do it all again just to feel this pain in the end. But there's nothing I can do, I’d feel so lost without you. I’ll never be the same with us apart. I knew it from the first time I saw your eyes. You would leave paw prints in my heart.

[Verse 2]
I made a promise to give you the life that you deserve. To fill your heart with memories replacing all your pain and your hurt. Afternoons laying in the sunshine, dancing through puddles in the rain, nights cuddled on the couch. Cruising top down on the highway, together seeing the world.

[Chorus]
If I had one wish it would be, to start over, you and me. I would do it all again just to feel this pain in the end. But there's nothing I can do, I’d feel so lost without you. I’ll never be the same with us apart. I knew it from the first time I saw your eyes. You would leave paw prints in my heart.

[Bridge]
Our house wouldn’t be a mess that is true. Furniture torn, toys scattered on the floor. But it would only be four walls and a roof, it wouldn’t feel like home anymore!

[Verse 3]
Then one day I got a call, said I had to come home right away. I dropped the phone and grabbed my chest. I prayed please don't let me be too late. I went crashing through the door. Fell on my knees to the floor. Held you in my arms until you closed your eyes and I watched you drift away. I always knew that goodbye would come too soon, I begged God for you to stay.

[Outro]
I’ll never be the same with us apart! You will always be inside my heart, but I knew someday we’d have to say goodbye. Now, I’m not sure about many things in life, but if there is heaven, you’ll be right there by my side.
