Analysis of Goodbye Days



These days fly by as we go on
Looking back we want to slow down
Tomorrow brings a new dawn
But promises neither smile nor frown

Our past is what was done
Whether we like it or not
Thinking about times that were fun
But the pain can never be forgot

Say goodbye to days we regret
And to those we never want to forget
Learning from the memories of yesterday
Moving forward onto the new day
