I wrote this from the animals perspective... and while i use dog (cuz i was thinking of my dog.. you can change it up for any pet you had...)

sung to the song Stay with me by Sam Smith

well it's true, it is time to say goodbye
But I still need love 'cause I'm just a dog
Our lives never seem to go to plan
I don't want you to leave, will you hold my paw?

Oh, don't you let me be
until my soul is freed
This was love, you're dear to me
So owner, stay with me...

Why are you so emotional?
this is a part of life, gain some self-control
and deep down you know we'll meet again
but you can lay with me so it doesn't hurt

Oh, won't you stay with me?
while my soul is freed
This was love, you're dear to me
Dear human, stay with me...

Oh, won't you stay with me
while i take my leave
This was love, you're dear to me
Dear human, stay with me...

Oh, now it's time to part
keep me in your heart.
This was love, you're dear to me
thank you for loving me...
