about

In remembrance of Lou Lou she was such a sweetheart of a pet my best friend I will forever love and cherish all the memories of you rip Louie

Its a song about a dog her name is Lou Lou she was my sons dog at the time this song was written I was dog sitting she missed Logan Ratliff so much she whined all night while I was trying to record a song so I shut the recorder off and wrote this song

lyrics

You stare outside to see what’s going on
It’s the same old thing to you but you are charmed
You beg to be seen but you’ll settle for being heard
And he could calm your spirit with just a single word
But I can do nothing for you Lou Lou Girl x2
Your master’s gone and you’re stuck here with me tonight
You don’t have a very good sense of time
But you’ll be there when the door swings open
You’ll be there with your heart wide open
I wish I could silence the demons inside your heart
But I haven’t got a clue in hell where to start
I can do nothing for you Lou Lou Girl x2
I wish I could take you to a field where you could run
And chase them rabbits around all day Lou Girl
Wouldn’t that be fun
And later on at home we’ll play with your new chew toy
Oh my God Lou you turn me back into a little boy
But I can do nothing for you Lou Lou Girl x2
