Goodbye from Loose Cannons by The Jolly Rogers

Well, goodbye,
It’s been wonderful knowing you.
It’s such a shame there’s no more time,
I guess, goodbye.
Well the memories, that we shared
Just aren’t the same, since you’re not there.
For me to call up, and you’d say,
“How’s it going, guy?”
Of regrets, I have none
Although a few things were left undone.
And the pain, stays the same,
Week to week, day to day.
I know I’d feel differently if I had heard you say...
Well, goodbye,
It’s been wonderful knowing you.
But when it’s time, it’s time,
To say, goodbye.
You know I’m proud of what you’ve done,
Since that accident in ’91.
Well we all make mistakes,
That I can’t deny.
Well I realized they hurt you so,
Those broken promises, but who could know?
That the time, I could stay,
Which would soon, slip away,
Hold on just a second there’s still more that I want to say!
Well, goodbye,
It’s been wonderful knowing each and every one of you.
I had a real great time, but I need,
To say goodbye.
To my family, and my friends,
One day, I’ll see you all again,
But now it’s time, it’s time to say goodbye.
