Tidy Tune #224: Goodbye - Plankeye

Hearing the news of the passing of Robin Williams made me think of this song this morning.

Goodbye - Plankeye
It's difficult to say goodbye after only one life
The rain will fall down replenishing all of our broken dreams
And this burning tree that's withering will bloom again
Would you believe?

Goodbye, goodbye, walk away
It's time to say
Goodbye, goodbye
It's time to say

And now all that's left pictures on the wall
Memories and stories that are told
The more oft told, the bigger they get
Create a legacy, lest we forget

Goodbye, goodbye, walk away
It's time to say
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, walk away
It's time to say

No longer can I hold on
To this defeated change in heart, I swear
It's time to sing "Fare Thee well" to life as I know it
You know I will be, you know I will be, yes it will be still
Be still, be still, be still, be still

Something woke me up in the midst of dream and fantasy
Halfway there but He always fills my cup
And He lifts me up oh how He lifts me up
Goodbye, goodbye
Walk away it's time to say goodbye
I never took the time to stop and realize that death takes many forms
Even while alive 

Songwriters
HARRISON, GAVIN RICHARD / BYER, RICARDO A.
