Pawprint in my Heart

The first time I laid eyes on you
I knew right from the start
That you were meant for me alone
You put your paw print on my heart

You taught me unconditional love
You made me laugh and smile
A little clown on angel white
With all your grace and style

Uncanny how you seem to know
All my feelings deep inside
Whether happy, sad, or in-between
There's nothing from you I can hide

Intelligence in those deep dark eyes
How could one be so smart
You knew just how to capture me
You put your paw print on my heart

A kiss, a whine, a growl, a bark
A language all your own
I understand your every word
With knowledge I've never known

I know that I am hooked for life
I will let nothing keep us apart
My friend, my pal, my soul mate
You put your paw print on my heart
