Lyric

Raindrops danced on the quiet street

I looked up from beneath my umbrella

There you were, a trembling cry

A tiny meow, lost and cold in the rain

So small, so scared, and yet so dear

I held you close and wiped your fear

That rainy day became the start

Of our two lives growing into one heart

From that moment, you were mine

Like raising a child, through every climb

You caught a cicada, brought it with pride

Climbed up a tree, got stuck, then cried

Those mischievous eyes, that playful grin

You made me laugh through thick and thin

Thank you, my dear, for finding me

You made friends with cats next door

Brought them in, then ran for more

Time passed on, and slowly you

Grew calmer, wiser—but still stayed true

Even after I found someone new

Your gentle soul remained so true

On nights we fought, you'd slip between

To mend the quiet space unseen

Your snowy fluff, that precious heat

Always curled beside my feet

You slept more as the years went by

But never missed a meal to try

Thank you, love, for staying near

You brought me peace, year after year

We watched the seasons come and go

Then one still summer morning's glow

You crossed the rainbow bridge so light

And I just wept—it didn’t feel right

I held your paw the final night

Whispered “thank you” in soft twilight

To the kindest soul I’ve ever known

You stayed until I wasn’t alone

So many laughs, so many tears

You brought me joy for countless years

Now all I feel is quiet grace

No regrets—just love in your place

Come again, in some new skin

I’ll wait for you through thick and thin

Thank you—I'll love you evermore
