A few weeks ago, we had to say goodbye to our beautiful dog, Oscar. He was a huge part of our lives, and our children were aged just 5, 3 and 1 when we adopted him from the rescue home in Cyprus.
He was the most wonderful family dog you could ever wish for. Soft, gentle, loving, playful, often found sleeping on our sofa or chasing pigeons and cats in the back garden. We had almost 15 wonderful years with him, and although were obviously heartbroken to lose him, we're also very grateful for the time we had with him and the love he gave us all.
"Footsteps In The Kitchen" is for anyone who has lost something or someone close to them and this is my little way of remembering him by - I will come back to this video often, and with a tear in my eye.
I would like to say a huge thank you to Emma at Detour Soundscape for making this amazing video for my song, I truly am eternally grateful.
Let's flood the comments with memories of those who meant so much to you who need to be remembered.
Lyrics
Morning breaks but nothing calls me
No hollow bowl, no gentle cry
The kettle boils for no one now
Just the space where you used to lie
Your lead is hanging by the doorway
Like it’s waiting on a lie
I stand still, keys in my hand
With nowhere left to walk tonight
I swear I hear you turning corners
Feel the floorboards breathe your name
Every habit still remembers
Even if I can’t explain
I hear footsteps in the kitchen
On the vinyl late at night
Little reminders of a lifetime
Pacing just outside my sight
I keep listening for something
That I know will never start
Just the sound of love still walking
Through the breaking of my heart
No reason left to rise at sunrise
No gentle weight against my side
No muddy paws, no knowing eyes
No “One more walk?” before goodbye
I reach down without thinking
To ask you for your paw
A ghost of warmth, an empty space
A habit I can’t ignore
You were softness in a cruel world
You were patience, you were calm
Every day you chose to love me
Without question, without harm
I hear footsteps in the kitchen
Like you’re circling my feet
Every sound a small religion
Every memory bittersweet
I’d give anything to hold you
Feel your heartbeat next to mine
But love doesn’t stop for endings
It just waits outside of time
I held you when you slipped away
Promised you it was alright
Told you you were such a good boy
As the world went soft and white
If love could keep you breathing
You’d still be lying here
But love is just the price we pay
For every perfect year
I hear footsteps in the kitchen
Though I know you’re not there now
Still I think of you so fondly
Like a prayer I don’t know how
You were beautiful and gentle
You were home, you were my friend
And I’ll carry every moment
Till I see you once again
The floor still knows your rhythm
The house still says your name
And love doesn’t stop walking
Even when nothing’s the same
