Lyrics
No words,
Now we stand,
In the rain,
Sad smiles,
Hardly hiding the pain.
Here this moment,
That we knew,
Would come,
All too soon.
Father,
Hears his new infant?s cry,
Time flew,
And he?s wondering why,
Somewhere lost between,
Hug and hand,
A boy became a man.
Won?t someone tell me,
I swear by,
All I know is true,
Why leaving?s,
Always the hardest thing to do.
I?d give my life,
To heaven?s light above,
An answer why,
That the hardest thing to do,
Is say goodbye.
Feeling now,
The warmth of your embrace,
I know,
My life has place.
Won?t someone tell me,
I swear by,
All I know is true,
Why leaving?s,
Always the hardest thing to do.
I?d give my life,
To heaven?s light above,
An answer why,
But I never thought,
This time would make me cry,
And my heart won?t soon forget,
Our last goodbye.
