Analysis of Don't shed a tear



Farewell I have to be going now
Going far away not sure how many days
You and I have traveled so far
We've made a good life with our love
Our love has been the glue to keep us as one
Now that I am done I say farewell
Its not goodbye forever
We'll meet again one day
We'll meet again in heaven
Cant say goodbye so I wish you farewell
We've traveled so far now I have to go alone
Don't shed a tear don't be sad
We've made a good life with our love
Children grown their on their own
You and I have traveled so far
Hold my love for you in your heart forever
I'll do the same
I say farewell Its not goodbye forever
We'll meet again one day
Hold my love for you in your heart forever
