My Confidant

I held your paw
Looked into your coal black eyes

And then I knew
That it would be all right

You guided me
Through the most hopeless night

You trusted me
I trusted you
Together Forever
Me and You

But then one day
A car whizzed by
You tore away
To meet people inside

I called your name
But you had broken free
Running and running
Ignoring my plea

The driver was going much too fast
He ran all the red lights
I knew you wouldn't last

I rush to your side
I cry and I cry
I kiss your sweet cheek
And I say
Goodbye.
