I never used to think of all the time I never used to think of all You'd sacrifice for everyone else I never realized how high you climbed I never learned my lessons Still you picked me up every time I fell I want you to know how much I love you I want you to know there's so much of you In everything that I am And I still believe you'll be here with me In the spring but now it's wintertime So I call you on the phone You never made me feel alone And I'll never say goodbye Because in my mind you're always in my heart Always validated everything I feel Never say goodbye Cause it's only time that's keeping us apart Shouldn't have to answer any questions Shouldn't have to put up with all those headaches That you really don't need This should be a time of your reflection You don't need doctors don't need lawyers Telling you what you need You finally climbed the mountain You should get to enjoy the view of the other side And if you should leave me that's okay This world's all impermanence anyway Did some things that made you cry I never thought I'd live to see you die I'll never say goodbye Never down with superficial scenes They'll never hook you up to their machines Lived you life with so much dignity You were always there for me I'll never say goodbye
