I see the shoes, a familiar sight
My heart sinks low, my purrs lose their light
You're leaving me, I can sense the pain
I meow to you, please stay, don't leave me again
Oh, don't leave me, human, don't walk away
I'll wait for you, until the end of day
My heart beats slow, am I losing my pride
I'll just sit and wait, until you're by my side
The door closes tight, I'm left alone
I sit on the stairs, my purr became a groan
The hours tick by slow, but my ears perk up high
Then I hear the door open, and my heart starts to fly
Oh, you're back with me, human, you're home to stay
I forgive your goodbye, and welcome you back today
My heart now beats fast, and my eyes shine bright
I'll purr and curl up, in your loving light
You ask if I'm hungry, and my heart skips a beat
Forgiveness flows, for my love for you is sweet
We sit on the couch, and watch the TV screen
Together again, my heart is serene
The shoes are off, the day is done
I'm grateful for your return, my love for you has won
I'll sleep beside you, through the night
My heart full of love, my spirit feeling right
