Farewell to you
I don't want to say goodbye to you,
but still know you should go.
This is a time of sadness, a time of joy,
a time to say farewell and goodbye.
A time of despair, for you and me
but let’s see it from the other side.
Let’s put our emotions to rest
as they lose out to the test of time
Time and money are the real world
where emotions are a game and gain...fame.
Take care my friend and get through to last
as moments fly by and our time wears thin
I say, with a heavy heart, a tearful eye
a drooping brow, yet a smiling face
Farewell... farewell to you.
