(Verse 1)
The sun comes up, and I can feel it breakin' through the blinds,
And there’s my buddy waitin' for me, tail waggin' every time.
His heart’s as big as Texas, and his gaze is soft and wide,
My loyal four-legged shadow, always walkin’ by my side.

(Chorus)
Oh, he's loyal as the day is long, always there to keep me strong,
Through the laughter and the tears, he's been right here all these years.
No need for words to understand, he reads me with a touch of his hand,
Oh, my dog, he's all I need, runnin' wild and runnin' free.

(Verse 2)
When the nights are long and lonely, and the road ahead looks rough,
He’s the one who shows me love when the world just ain’t enough.
We'll wander through the meadows, 'neath a sky that never ends,
And when the stars are fallin', he's my brother and my friend.

(Chorus)
Oh, he's loyal as the day is long, always there to keep me strong,
Through the laughter and the tears, he's been right here all these years.
No need for words to understand, he reads me with a touch of his hand,
Oh, my dog, he's all I need, runnin' wild and runnin' free.

(Bridge)
He don’t care 'bout where I’ve been, or what tomorrow brings,
Just a stick or ball to chase and the joy in little things.
When I’m down, he stays so close, he’s my comfort, he’s my guide,
Yeah, my dog’s a gift from heaven, with him, I’m filled with pride.

(Chorus)
Oh, he's loyal as the day is long, always there to keep me strong,
Through the laughter and the tears, he's been right here all these years.
No need for words to understand, he reads me with a touch of his hand,
Oh, my dog, he's all I need, runnin' wild and runnin' free.

(Outro)
So, as we watch the evening fall, and stars climb up the sky,
There ain't a thing I’d trade away for every moment by his side.
With those eyes so true and bright, he's the calm to every storm,
Yeah, my dog, my forever home, where my heart is always warm.
