Up

so long, my friend

written to So Long My Friend from Yanni’s album "On the Mirror"

 

now’s the time to say goodbye

now’s not ours to question why

we have shared those special smiles

we have walked together more than just one little mile

and we will remember then

 

no one takes what memories make

no one breaks for break up’s sake

no one wants to hurt a heart

no one needs to be wandering for all eternity

just because things keep moving on

 

no one has to be wandering for all eternity

just because things keep moving on

 

sometimes you must take a stand

sometimes others won’t understand

sometimes you just can’t sit still

not because you don’t know the best direction you should go

just because things keep moving on

 

so long, my friend
