Saying Goodbye

Saying Goodbye

I've lived my life romanced a wife
I've walked and talked for miles 
So when my last breath does come 
I hope to leave with smiles. 
Please don't be sad once I am gone 
My time has come to part 
I'll never leave you so alone 
You'll always be in my heart
I'll meet you once again, my friend in heaven up above 
Walk with me once more, my friend 
And let me show my love 
I'll walk with you once more, my friend, before it's time to go 
Place footprints in the sandy beach 
Where the waves put on a show 
So this is a final goodbye, and  soon I will depart 
I'll miss you the most, my friend; you had the biggest heart. 
I hope you will remember me and think of me in time 
I'll miss your smile and tenderness 
You'll always be on my mind 
The time has come for me to say my last goodbye 
I can't seem to carry on for the water in my eyes.
