One more day with my best friend.

Versuri

(Verse 1) Hey there, Jax, I see you layin’ low tonight, Your eyes still shining, but they’re tired from the fight, You used to run that pasture like a king in the sun, Diggin’ mud bugs in the dirt, oh you never were done. Corn dogs in your dreams, banana pudding on your breath, Little joys you held onto, even starin’ down death, You’d share your world so easy—your toys, your space, your plate, Or maybe they just took it… and you smiled anyway. (Pre-Chorus) That nose could find a memory buried deep in the ground, And you’d clean up every yard like a hero unbound, You gave more than you took, every single day— So don’t you go too far… don’t you fade away… (Chorus) Hold on, Jax, don’t cross that bridge tonight, Not yet, not while your heart still burns that light, We ain’t done with your love, your gentle soul, your way— Stay a little longer… please just stay. Hold on, boy, fight through the pain, We’re right here callin’ your name again, The rainbow can wait… heaven can wait— Just hold on, Jax… don’t go today. (Verse 2) You got that mark on your head, yeah that story’s wild and true, A little seed that grew inside—only something meant for you, Like you were planted here for love, grew strong and kind and real, Even now, you teach us what it means to feel. You’d let the whole world lean on you—kids, pups, anyone, Lie on you, poke at you, and you’d still just call it fun, Patience like a saint in fur, calm like quiet rain, Even now you wag your tail through the hurt and pain. (Pre-Chorus) And when you drink that water, it’s a splash more than a sip, Leaves a lake around the bowl—yeah we laugh at it, Every messy moment is a memory we’ll save— But we ain’t ready yet… we ain’t ready for goodbye today… (Chorus) Hold on, Jax, don’t cross that bridge tonight, Not yet, not while your heart still burns that light, We ain’t done with your love, your gentle soul, your way— Stay a little longer… please just stay. Hold on, boy, fight through the pain, We’re right here callin’ your name again, The rainbow can wait… heaven can wait— Just hold on, Jax… don’t go today. Bridge (strings swell, choir softly behind) If love could heal, you’d never fall, You’d outrun time, you’d outlive us all, Every tear is sayin’, “Stay right here,” Every heartbeat whisperin’, “We need you near…” But if you’re tired… and the road gets too long, Know every step you took made us strong, Just not yet… not yet, please fight— Stay with us through one more night… (Final Chorus-big, emotional) Hold on, Jax, don’t cross that bridge tonight, Not yet, not while your soul still shines so bright, You’re more than a dog—you’re our heart, our home— We’re not ready… don’t go. Hold on, boy, hear our cry, You’re our goodest soul, don’t say goodbye, The rainbow can wait… heaven can wait— Just hold on, Jax… just hold on… (Outro-soft, fading) Corn dogs, banana pudding dreams… Pasture winds and quiet streams… Stay right here… right where you lay… Good boy, Jax… just stay…
