"Good-Bye"
I've
said 'good-bye' so many times...
Please,
do not be angry
If I
can only say,
"Stay
with me, won't you please?..."
So
many, many times...
To
the people I love
Who
always, always say,
"I'll
see you again soon..."
And
every time, it hurts...
When
they walk out that door
And I
call after them,
"Please,
don't leave me behind..."
I'm
alone, I'm dying...
To my
father, mother
Who,
then, always respond,
"But
I'm needed elsewhere..."
I'd
do anything to keep you here...
I
lower my eyes, and
Weakly,
whisper aloud,
"If
I'm a good child..."
No
matter what it takes...
Trying
to hold back tears
I
look up, blink, and ask,
"Will
you return quickly?..."
Just
don't leave me alone...
Their
faces turn away
And
their voices speak out,
"Yes,
we will return soon..."
Don't
leave me in the darkness...
The
days and weeks grow long
And
others say to me,
"They'll
be back, just you wait..."
This
can't be right...
But I
can no longer
Disregard
their absence,
"They
are not coming back..."
To
say 'good-bye' so many times...
And
the only thing I
Can
now understand, is,
"'Hello'
just means 'good-bye'..."
I
need someone, I want someone...
So
then, one night, I begged
If
someone can hear me,
"Please,
don't leave me alone..."
Someone
who can love me...
The
stars shone kindly down
As I
made one, small wish,
"I
only want a friend..."
Someone
who won't go away...
I
tried not to cry, and
Although
it was hopeless,
"Who
will never leave me..."
Someone,
who won't say 'good-bye'...
And
the stars heard my plea
And
they came to my aid,
"I'm
Sonic the Hedgehog...!"
I'd
said 'good-bye' so many times...
But
now, for once, I had
The
friend I had dreamed of,
"I
won't leave you behind!..."
And
now, no more farewells...
Time
flew by so quickly,
And
new adventures came,
"I'm
happy, 'cause of you!..."
No
longer alone, no longer afraid...
As if
it were a dream
My
old life disappeared,
"I
don't want to go back..."
Afraid
of drowning in the sorrow...
Then
came that fateful day
When
I felt my heart break,
"Sonic
has to go home..."
But
I'd said 'good-bye' so many times...
Too
many, so many
I
just couldn't believe,
"To
say 'good-bye' again..."
I
won't say 'good-bye' again...
So
then, on that morning
Although
I said out loud,
"Have
a safe trip, Sonic..."
No
one will leave me again...
My
mind was in anguish
Begging
you to stay here,
"Please
don't leave me, Sonic!..."
Don't
let me suffocate in the darkness...
My
heart was in despair
Not
wanting you to go,
"Please,
don't leave me behind!..."
I
won't let you leave me...
So
then, without a thought
I
slammed and locked the door,
"I
can't let you leave me!..."
But
you can't stay here...
As if
everything was
Falling
down around me,
"I
have destroyed the world..."
Everything
is so, so wrong...
The
ultimate betrayal
To
such a free heart,
"I
chained you to this world..."
I
was too selfish...
And
if I could have changed
Just
one thing in my life,
"You
shouldn't have met me..."
I
should have just said 'good-bye'...
But
then, you showed that you
Could
have left, anytime,
"Instead,
you came with me..."
But
somehow, it was all right...
Through
my cascading tears
I saw
into your eyes,
"I
want to be with you..."
Maybe
it's okay...
And I
could not change fate
So I
let go my hold,
"Good-bye,
Sonic, good-bye..."
...
to be a little selfish...
From
meeting you, I've learned
Perhaps,
it could be that,
"'Good-bye'
can mean 'hello'..."
I've
said 'good-bye' so many times.
But
now, I want to say...
Until
we meet again.
