Lyrics
“Willow Knows”
Lyrics by Robb Goddard
[Verse 1]
The morning light creeps across the floor,
I hear soft steps by the bedroom door.
She’s always there, with eyes so true,
Tail waggin’ slow, like she knows what to do.
We’ve walked through years, side by side,
Through storms, through calm, through the tears I hide.
She don’t need words to understand—
She leans in close and licks my hand.
⸻
[Chorus]
Willow knows when I’m feelin’ low,
When I fake the smile and don’t let it show.
She don’t ask why, don’t need to speak,
Just lays her head across my knee.
She’s my stillness, she’s my peace,
In her eyes, I find release.
No need for talk, just love that grows—
My heart is safe…
’Cause Willow knows.
⸻
[Verse 2]
She’s seen the sweat, she’s seen the strain,
Waited by the door through the hardest days.
Watched me grind, watched me rise,
Always there with no disguise.
When I come home, she’s first to greet,
No matter if I’m strong or beat.
She don’t care what the world has said—
She just curls up by my bed.
⸻
[Chorus]
Willow knows when I’m feelin’ low,
When I fake the smile and don’t let it show.
She don’t ask why, don’t need to speak,
Just lays her head across my knee.
She’s my stillness, she’s my peace,
In her eyes, I find release.
No need for talk, just love that grows—
My heart is safe…
’Cause Willow knows.
⸻
[Bridge]
Some folks chase riches, chase gold and land,
But I found heaven in the touch of her hand.
She never lied, never turned away,
Just stayed by my side, day after day.
⸻
[Final Chorus]
Yeah, Willow knows, through thick and thin,
Every fall, every win.
She holds my heart with silent grace,
That old-soul calm in her face.
And when I’m gone, just let them say—
“He loved that girl every step of the way.”
She’s more than a dog, more than a rose…
She’s my whole world…
And Willow knows.
