I miss the weight of you, I
I miss the weight of you, I

I miss the weight of you, I
I miss the weight
I miss the weight of you

How can you not exist
How can you physically be gone
How are you not there waiting at the door when I come home
Where are you now?
I smelt you in a dream
You were with me
You were real
But ever since my mind could only build a puppet
You without your indignant spirit
Your earnest eyes, expressive ears
Your noble parading tail
And there are times that I can see you racing through the fields
You tearing across beaches
You charging through the hills
But I wish that I could hold you
Wish I could pull you close
Press my nose into the soft fur just behind your ears
Or rub it on your graying old muzzle
You were there for half my life
The only half that I remember
My fingers left your coarse fur
As you exhaled forever
I miss the weight
I miss the weight of you, I
Miss the weight of you
I miss the weight
I miss the weight of you, I
Miss the weight of you
I miss the weight
I miss the weight of you, I
Miss the weight of you, I
Miss the weight of you, I
Miss the weight of you
