Farewell is

a lonely sound

when told to

someone you love

You know it hurts inside

and you wonder why

you must leave

the one that you love

Saying goodbye

to someone you love

is so hard

for any man

Keep saying it's just

for a while

then you force a smile

and you hope she'll

understand

Then a tear appears

in her eyes

as she tightly

holds your hand

And you let her know

that it's time to go

you must leave

while you can oh but

farewell is a lonely sound

When told to

someone you love

you know it hurts inside

and you wonder why

You must leave

the one that you love

I'm leaving darling

but I'll be

back one day

Ooh every silent

step you take

each one

hurts your heart

As you board the train

you feel a pain

that starts as you

depart yeah

Wipe your eyes

so she can't see

'cause a man

should never cry

Now there's just a trace

of her crying face

as you wave to her

goodbye that's why

farewell is a lonely sound

When told

to someone you love

you know it hurts inside

and you wonder why

You must leave

the one that you love

I don't wanna leave you

baby, I don't wanna say

goodbye no, no

Oooh 'cause it hurts inside

and you wonder why

you must leave

the one that you love

Baby, baby farewell

is a lonely sound

when told

to someone you love

You know it hurts inside

and you wonder why

you must leave

the one that you love

Baby, baby farewell

is a lonely sound
