Finished: Farewell

Farewell

VERSE
Let me tell you a story
‘Bout a boy and a girl
Love in her eyes was his crowning glory
They were each other’s whole world

He knows in his heart he’s bound away
She knew from the start that he couldn’t stay

CHORUS
And so now we say
Farewell, fare-well…
Farewell, farewell, farewell.

VERSE
Now he’s over the ocean
She’s sitting under their star
Wondering where he’s at this moment
In a place much too far

They’re miles apart, too far away
And guilty in part are those who won’t pay

CHORUS
And so now we say
Farewell, fare-well…
Farewell, farewell, farewell.

VERSE
He realized memento mori
In the American way
(She) Opened her eyes to a morning glory
As he was slipping away

She knows in her heart that she is breaking
He knew from the start the chance he was taking

CHORUS
And so now we say
Farewell, fare-well…
Farewell, farewell, farewell.
