Happy Birthday Nugget

Happy Birthday Nugget, wherever you are. It's been 11 years now since I had to say goodbye, and I've missed you and Velvet every day. You were both such wonderful pups and I had no idea how lucky I was to have you both as long as I did.



Oh very young what will you leave us this time
There'll never be a better chance to change your mind
And if you want this world to see a better day
Will you carry the words of love with you
Will you ride the great white bird into heaven
And though you want to last forever
You know you never will
You know you never will
And the goodbye makes the journey harder still

Oh very young what will you leave us this time
You're only dancing on this earth for a short while
Oh very young what will you leave us this time.
