Lyrics (Song: One More Minute - RJ Yolande Mendes): You came to me with gentle eyes

Like heaven wrapped in fur

A rescue heart, but somehow you

Were the one who rescued her


Every year just pulled us close

Like roots beneath the ground

Your paws beside my broken days

Were healing without a sound


You loved me on my hardest nights

When I forgot my worth

It's easy for a heart to love

But you loved me first


If I had known that day was the last time

I'd have held you a little bit tighter

Stayed up all night by your side

Watched every breath like a fire


If I had known that heaven was calling

I'd have begged time, "Please move slower"

Now there's a space on my chest where you'd rest

And it feels so much colder


Loving you was easy to do

Being loved by you was a gift

But saying goodbye

Left a scar I can't lift


Oh, I'd give anything

For one more minute


They say life goes on somehow

But they don't see this ache

A silent bowl, an empty bed

A heart that feels it break


I lost my strength, I lost my spark

When I lost you that day

My best friend's gone, and I'm still here

Trying to find my way


But love like yours don't disappear

It's stitched into my soul

And every tear that falls at night

Is proof you made me whole


If I had known that day was the last time

I'd have held you a little bit tighter

Stayed up all night by your side

Watched every breath like a fire


If I had known that heaven was calling

I'd have begged time, "Please move slower"

Now there's a space on my chest where you'd rest

And it feels so much colder


Loving you was easy to do

Being loved by you was a gift

But saying goodbye

Left a scar I can't lift


Oh, I'd give anything

For one more minute


But I believe there's a promise waiting

Beyond these broken days

Where tails will wag in golden light

And love won't fade away


And when my name is called someday

I know just where you'll be

Running fast through heaven's fields

Straight back home to me Original Song Credits: Lyrics: RJ Yolande Mendes Composition: RJ Yolande Mendes Lead Vocals: RJ Yolande Mendes You can also listen to RJ Yolande Mendes on: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/14M0hKr1KJ5Z584fjsyroE iTunes: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/rj-yolande-mendes/1623679052 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.in/artists/B0B17V3D8R/rj-yolande-mendes Youtube Music: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzDqQRU2zjVGEclgjf2_BEQ #OneMoreMinute #RjYolandeMendes #PetParents #ForeverInOurHearts #LoveNeverLeaves #unconditionallove #doglife #dogs #dog #losingalovedone #petlovers #pets #petlover #griefjourney #grief #onemorewish #heaven #reunion #untilwemeetagain #mendes #singersongwriter #music #mumbai #sadsong #hearttouching #petdog #yolande #yolandemendes #promiseland #promise #tails #waggingtails #dogsrunning #time #everybreath #anything #sorrow #losingapet
