Goodbye

I just want to hold you tight, and whisper things you probably know

What I’d give for one more night, but now it's time for letting go

I find it hard to hold back tears; words don’t say the things I feel

When did moments turn to years, how and when will this heart heal?

You’ve always been a part of me. Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

 Heartfelt memories are what you’ll leave behind

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Close your eyes, dear one, I hope it’s peace and love you’ll find

I never thought about this day, what it means to shed the shell

Softly, as you slip away, I kiss your lips and wish you well

You’ve always been a part of me. Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

 Heartfelt memories are what you leave behind

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Fare-thee-well, dear one, I hope it’s peace and love you’ll find

You’ll never be apart from me, I know. Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

 Heartfelt memories are what you’ve left behind

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye. Spirit never dies; it’s only redefined

Goodbye, goodbye. Heartfelt memories are what you’ve left behind

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Paradise, dear one, it’s peace and love we find
