lyrics

Goodbye
words and music by Matt Young

Verse 1
It’s been forty four amazing years since we exchanged our wedding rings
We just knew we had that brilliant special thing
We were young in love, had the whole world in our hands
Never thought that one day God might make a stand
Verse 2
I was there the night you had that dizzy spell
You disguised with your goofy smile that you weren’t well
I guess I knew deep down inside this thing was here to stay
Though I could not face reality at all that day see
Chorus 1
I always told you I’ll love you till I die
I’m not ready to end this journey no I cannot say goodbye
Yes I’ll truly love you till the moment that I die
But I’m not ready and it’s not time to say goodbye
Verse 3
We stroll along the water’s edge and I see you hide your pain
But you won’t give up, you still love to feel the rain and
we chat about our babies long ago they flew the nest
Children of their own now yes seven of the best
Chorus 2
I always told you I’ll love you till I die
I’m not ready to end this love affair no I cannot say goodbye
As I ponder a world without you I slowly start to cry
Though it’s not fair I must prepare to say goodbye
goodbye, goodbye

Verse 4
As I lie with you in your final hour you’re just a shadow of yourself
I’d give my heart and soul to heal you to good health
You awake for one last moment and you gaze into my eyes
And you whisper something in my ear and it’s now I recognise see
Chorus 3
I’ve always told you I’ll love you till I die
This moment is now upon us, and it’s time to say goodbye
If I truly love you I must let your spirit fly
I hold your hand and gently say goodbye
Verse 5
Now I dream about you every night, and when I’m in my rocking chair
I’ve made a new life now but it’s hard without you there
See a man he needs his lady the one in whom he can confide
It won’t be long now darling till our worlds again collide
Chorus 4
See I always told you I’ll love you till I die
As I turn and stare from the letter box, and wave to you goodbye
I still truly love you but there’s no more tears to cry
I wander off as I say my last goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
