lyrics

Goodbye.
So long my old friend.
It's far too soon to end.
So long my old friend,
'til I see you again.

When the passage of time
starts to fade my memories,
would you send some kind of sign,
or anything to remind me?

Goodbye.
So long my old friend.
It's far too soon to end.
So long my old friend,
'til I see you again.

Before you blink years have gone by.
We have changed and grown apart.
But I'm imagining the day
when we pick up back at the start.

Goodbye.
So long my old friend.
It's far too soon to end.
So long my old friend,
'til I see you again.

We can try and slow it down,
but life is quick at moving on.
So please forgive me if I might
sometimes forget that you're gone.

Goodbye.
So long my old friend.
It's far too soon to end.
So long my old friend,
'til I see you again.
