about

This is the same song as MISCHA that I wrote for my beloved Doberman who died during a surgical procedure to remove a leg riddled with cancer. We, as a family, were heartbroken. The night before the funeral services we had for her, I wrote this song so it could be played during her ceremony. I never considered this a completed version since I just didn't have enough time to complete it until later, and it was extraordinarily difficult to even achieve this version at the time I did it. I'm finally able to make people aware of this version now, 2 years after her passing.

This is song #579.

Recorded at The CELL BLOCK Studio in Auburn, WA.

lyrics

MIMI, DID YOU KNOW HOW MUCH WE LOVED YOU SO?
MIMI, WE DIDN’T WANT TO LET YOU GO.
MIMI, WE LOVED YOU MORE THAN ANY WORDS CAN SAY.
MIMI, WE’RE GOING TO MISS YOU EVERY SINGLE DAY.

WE’LL MISS YOUR GENTLE TOUCH
AND CARESSING YOU SO MUCH.
THANK YOU FOR THE MEMORIES
AND THANK YOU FOR TEACHING ME.

MIMI, WE DON’T WANT TO SAY GOOD-BYE.
MEESH, FORGIVE US WHEN WE START TO CRY.
MISS MIMI, TIME FOR BEDDY-BED AND GO NIGHT, NIGHT.
PUPPY, YOUR SPIRIT WAS OUR GUIDING LIGHT.

YOU GAVE US MEANING TO OUR LIVES,
AND SHARED YOUR SOUL WITH MY WIFE.
WE FOUGHT WITH YOU SIDE BY SIDE.
YOUR HEART, YOUR TRUST YOU WOULD NEVER HIDE.

MESHEE, YOUR LOVE WAS WAY BEYOND MEASURE.
MISCHA, YOU’RE OUR LOYAL PROTECTOR.
MIMI, I HOPE YOU KNOW HOW MUCH WE LOVED YOU SO?
MIMI, WE NEVER WANTED TO HAVE LET YOU GO. OH NO…

The Santairs Auburn, Washington

I am a musician, singer, and songwriter doing this part-time but have been doing it all my life. I started singing before I could talk at the age of one, and wrote my first real song at 15 years of age. (If you count avant-garde as a song, then the age would be 7.) I currently own my own recording studio; and I write, perform, and record my own music (and other's from time to time.) I am Santairs. ... more
