Story Behind The Song

Caitlin had Cushing's Disease. Then she developed Diabetes. Then she became blind almost overnight. Quality of life was gone. We had to let her go. But we are so sad.

Lyrics

The sun dipped low, casting shadows on our floor
Here we stand with heavy hearts, saying goodbye forevermore

[Verse 1]
Oh Caitlin, sweet friend, you played through each day,
A wagging tail, a warm kiss that always found a way.
Little paws on the hardwood, soft yips in the night,
We reminisce the laughter, oh, what a pure delight.

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, our heartstrings tugged, every single day,
In every bark, every wag, you helped us find our way.
Agonizing moments fill the air with anguish,
We breathe deep, let the love shine, through the pain we might languish.

[Chorus]
Goodbye, Caitlin, we cried as we let you go,
Through the tears, we lifted you, wrapped in love, we know.
You were the best little doggie, a heart so full of cheer,
In every memory, in every laugh, we'll forever hold you dear.

[Verse 2]
Oh, how you kept us laughing with your bossy little ways,
A playful spirit shining bright, through our hardest days.
Every snuggle, every bark, we can't find the right words,
But we know you're up above, among the happy birds.

[Bridge]
Painful day, oh, how could we do this? Can't let go,
But love doesn't end, it gathers, it won't ever slow.
We picture your paws running wild, on that sunlit shore,
We'll see you soon on the rainbow bridge, forevermore.

[Chorus]
Goodbye, Caitlin, we agonized over doing this,
It aches in every corner of our hearts, it's hard to exist.
You were the best little doggie, through laughter and through tears,
In the echoes of our hearts, you'll always be dear.

[Outro]
So we'll hold on to the memories, cherish each loving glance,
Goodbye for now, dear Caitlin, we'll meet again by chance.
Under the warmth of the rainbow bridge where the flowers sway,
In that perfect place of joy, we'll find you again one day.
