A deeply personal and faith-centered song about Daisee Mae as a God-given companion sent during life’s darkest season. More than a dog, she became a symbol of the love, friendship, hope, and comfort God placed along the journey through loneliness, pain, and solitude. Through years of healing and reflection, the song tells the story of finding purpose, rediscovering faith, and answering a greater calling—to help reach others living through their own hell on earth, encourage them to wake from the darkness, and step into the light.
Lyrics
Daisee Mae, you’re my sunshine in the spring
Remember way back in Indiana, you were a little thing
You & dad have done a bit of traveling
Thanking God, he made you for me
She can be quite a handful
Little bit of attitude in this tiny animal
She’s always game to play fetch & wrestle
Always down to take a nap and cuddle
Late at night, she gets cold and wants to snuggle
Sometimes she has an accident on grandma’s carpet
Gets herself into trouble, but she’s so lovable
Make no mistake, she’s the pup for me
From the minute we met
You’ve been by my side
My ride-or-die, starin’ into those pretty eyes
Ya don’t know, life don’t last forever
Once in a while, I have to say goodbye
So, I do it like it’s the last time
But don’t worry, I’ll hurry back to your side
Daisee Mae, you’re my sunshine in the spring
Remember way back in Indiana, you were a little thing
You & dad have done a bit of traveling
Thanking God, he made you for me
Remember stayin’ in the camper
In Port Austin, just you and me
Beautiful days, watchin’ you run free on the beach
That healing is the type of medicine we both need
Existing now as my best memories
Of these precious years, with you my friend
Don’t ever forget, your fur dad loves you
I’m gonna hold on to you, as long as I can
From the minute we met
You’ve been by my side
My ride-or-die, starin’ into those pretty eyes
Ya don’t know, life don’t last forever
Once in a while, I have to say goodbye
So, I do it like it’s the last time
But don’t worry, I’ll hurry back to your side
Daisee Mae, you’re my sunshine in the spring
Remember way back in Indiana, you were a little thing
You & dad have done a bit of traveling
Thanking God, he made you for me
