It's a connection I've felt forever
Before I even shook his hand
And he breaks down and he ask me something
And he says it's time for goodbye
And he swears that it was nothing
Just thirteen years that had flown by
And I still can hear him whisper
Goodbye, my friend, I promise you'll be fine
And I now see
What we never noticed
And that's the love he has for me
And so as I stand here at the station
Watching as he slowly disappears
A fading hope, a presents that lingers
Even though the curtain is drawn
A dieing sun that leaves with him
I only wish I'd known before
And I still can hear him whisper
Goodbye, my friend, I promise you'll be fine
And I now see
What we never noticed
And that's the love he has for me
I almost ran to try and stop him then
Thought maybe we could try again
With clearer consciences and clearer minds
Who said this has to be goodbye?
A darker world I see ahead
Thought he might have been heaven sent
And I still can hear him whisper
Goodbye, my friend, I promise you'll be fine
And I now see
What we never noticed
And that's the love he has for me
