Anyone who’s every lost a beloved pet knows the heartbreak, emptiness and sorrow it can bring. When you’re used to their company and companionship and then they’re suddenly gone, there’s just a void that feels so empty. This song is my attempt to understand the sorrow I feel. Let me know what you think in the comments.

LYRICS:

[Verse]
The leash hangs still on the wall
His bowl untouched in the hall
Echoes of paws
But no sound at all

[Chorus]
Goodbye my shadow
Where did you go
I’m walking alone
I’m moving slow
The world’s so quiet
It’s lost its glow

[Verse 2]
The yard feels empty tonight
No wagging tail in the fading light
Just me and the stars
Holding on tight

[Prechorus]
I call your name
It falls like stone
This house is full
But I’m alone

[Chorus]
Goodbye my shadow
Where did you go
I’m walking alone
I’m moving slow
The world’s so quiet
It’s lost its glow

[Bridge]
I see you in dreams
We’re running free
But I wake to find it’s just memory
The door’s still open
But you’re not with me
