Farewell/ My Time To Go
My friends I've grown tired and am in need
of a rest.
A inviitation to a farewell banquet.
Please be my guest.
When everything begins to move
slow.
I'll need no advice.
For I'll know its time to go.
I hope i made you laugh as well as think.
Farewell I'll bid you after this
last drink.
The road was many things but never boring.
Sleep in peace like children.
And some old man snoring.
I thank you all.
As I drift were the dark waters flow.
No tears should touch your cheeks.
For its my time to go.
No longer within sight.
But always within your heart.
Why worry over tommorow when one day
we shall all depart.
Old friends rest well knowing this is not the
last time you will see my face.
for we will gather somewhere beyond
are final resting place.
Where one flower dies another will always grow.
I love you all.
But for now it's my time to go.
