22 for Tux

Verse 1

My jersey says twenty two But that’s not just a number That was Tux, my first best friend My shadow and my wonder Childhood paws on the floor Tail wagging through the day Every hug, every kiss In our own little way

Pre-Chorus] That morning felt like always Snuggles at the door Then I ran for the school bus And came back hurt before [Chorus] Twenty two for Tux Twenty two for Tux My first love, my good boy Twenty two for Tux Twenty two for Tux Still with me in the noise (oh, Tux) (yeah, Tux)

Verse 2] Dad held me at the doorway Said, “baby, take it slow” I saw the truth in his eyes Before I let it show It hurt to find the silence Where your paws used to be I was just a little kid But I still felt the ache in me [

Pre-Chorus] One missed morning changed us Tore the whole day apart But love don’t leave the hallway It stays inside the heart [

Chorus] Twenty two for Tux Twenty two for Tux My first love, my good boy Twenty two for Tux Twenty two for Tux Still with me in the noise (oh, Tux) (yeah, Tux) [

Bridge] Then a month gone by Bo came bouncing in Big pup heart, open arms And I let the light back in He loves me like forever Like he always knew Some things leave a scar on us Some things help us through

Chorus] Twenty two for Tux Twenty two for Tux My first love, my good boy Twenty two for Tux Twenty two for Tux Still with me in the noise (oh, Tux) (yeah, Tux) Twenty two for Tux Yeah, twenty two for Tux
