Story Behind The Song
I had my pet dog, Sassy for 20 years, when she finally had to be put to sleep. Soon after she had been gone, I had a dream about her. It was a 3/4 headshot of her with a pair of sunglasses I had lost at a gig. She's okay. I'm okay.

Lyrics
My Dog?s Wearin? My Shades (In Heaven)
Written by: Natalie Hagan
Music By: Jeff Luif, Dave Jarmy, Pete Reno, Patrick Murphy
Ó 1998
Verse 1
Last night I had this dream
As big as the big screen
Mind?s eye went in for a close-up
Would it be? Could it be?
Verse 2
It?s been so long since I?ve seen her
Seems forever and a day
Although I have stopped cryin?
And just when I?ve stopped denying
I saw her face
And she?s okay
Chorus:
My dog?s wearin? my shades in heaven
Cuz she?s the coolest in the clouds
Round specs, see through blue
Just like the sky she?s flyin? through
Verse 3
It was just like a picture
But to me it was so real
I wanted to tell her I missed her
If some time from her I could steal
I wanted to tell her
That I?m okay
Chorus
My dog?s wearin? my shades in heaven
Cuz she?s the coolest in the clouds
Round specs, see through blue
Just like the sky she?s flyin? through
Instr. Solo
I wanted to tell her
That I?m okay
Chorus
My dog?s wearin? my shades in heaven
Cuz she?s the coolest in the clouds
Round specs, see though blue
Just like the sky she?s flyin? through
And she?s okay
And I?m okay
And she?s okay
