I Miss Jake

[slow sad guitar melody] [Verse 1] The sun still rises, the yard’s the same, But it’s quiet now without your name. Your paw prints fade, but they’re in my soul, You were more than a dog; you made me whole. [wailing harmonica solo] [Chorus] I miss Jake, my faithful friend, The love you gave will never end. Through every laugh, through every ache, Life feels empty—I miss Jake. [Verse 2] The leash hangs where it used to stay, The ball you loved is put away. I still hear your bark in the evening breeze, But it’s just a memory that brings me to my knees. [Chorus] I miss Jake, my faithful friend, The love you gave will never end. Through every laugh, through every ache, Life feels empty—I miss Jake. [Bridge] You taught me joy in the simple things, Like chasing shadows and what life brings. Even now, though you’re far away, Your spirit lingers, guiding my way. [Chorus] I miss Jake, my faithful friend, The love you gave will never end. Through every laugh, through every ache, Life feels empty—I miss Jake. [Outro] Run free, sweet boy, where the skies are blue, There’s no leash to hold, just fields to pursue. Until we meet at Heaven’s gate, Know forever, Jake—I’ll wait.
