Oh we never know where life will take us
I know it s just a ride on the wheel
And we never know when death will shake us
And we wonder how it will feel

So goodbye my friend
I know I ll never see you again
But the time together through all the years
Will take away these tears
It s okay now
Goodbye my friend

I ve seen a lot things that make me crazy
And I guess I held on to you
We could ve run away and left well maybe
But it wasn t time and we both knew

So goodbye my friend
I know I ll never see you again
But the love you gave me through all the years
Will take away these tears
I m okay now
Goodbye my friend

Life s so fragile and love s so pure
We can t hold on but we try
We watch how quickly it disappears
And we never know why

But I m okay now
Goodbye my friend
You can go now
Goodbye my friend
