I find it best to be prepared For the tricks of the light And the shadows things throw If you hold them too tight Oh, time is a train and It's lost to the bend I will chase down the wreck Alongside my friend goodbye My friend goodbye Well at the chime of a clock At the toss of a coin Wherever you are From Dubai to Des Moines Oh, let go of my hand Let's make this the end I will take off alone Just me and my friend goodbye
My friend goodbye My friend goodbye Some things we'll always know Hearts and distances grow Just give me enough rope And I'll still hang on To Hope Has roots Like a willow tree Arcing and searching For the water in me Oh I love you, I love you And I watch you ascend With joy and with loss With my friend goodbye My friend goodbye My friend goodbye My friend goodbye Goodbye Goodbye
