Goodbye (Music & lyrics: Saarinen)

As the yellow leafs
are slowly falling down from the trees
the time has come for me to leave

The sun is setting down (setting down),
casts its final rays on the ground
I'm ready for my final round

Things come to their end
Nothing lasts forever
and everything changes (all the time)
The bars can't be bent
and the walls keep coming closer
This path I must take - this may be our last goodbye

Though I have gone my memory burns in your heart
and our final kiss when tears ran from your eyes
Though I have gone tomorrow comes a new dawn
and the sun'll dry away the tears you cried

I cannot stay (cannot stay)
though I wouldn't want to go away,
but it isn't a choice for me to make

'Cause it's the only way,
the only road that won't lead astray
This is the path I have to take

No need to pretend
'cause the end is getting closer
Don't be afraid (don't be afraid)
The bars can't be bent
but they can't hold me forever
This promise I made - this won't be our last goodbye

Though I have gone my memory burns in your heart
and our final kiss when tears ran from your eyes
Though I have gone tomorrow comes a new dawn
and the sun'll dry away the tears you cried

You cried
The sun'll dry your tears away
Goodbye
(Goodbye)

Though I have gone my memory burns in your heart
and our final kiss when tears ran from your eyes
Though I have gone tomorrow comes a new dawn
and the sun'll dry away the tears you cried
