Goodbye my friend; Goodbye.

Goodbye my friend; Goodbye.
You were young, vibrant and full of life
You left behind your baby girl and beautiful young wife.
What a sad day it was for all; The day you had to die.

How long has it been since that fateful day,
when the Good Lord came to take you away?

I sit here and wonder how life would have been,
had you been around, had you still been here my friend.
When I see you again, what will you say?
Will you be surprised or will you smile because you knew I'd turn out this way?

Goodbye my friend; Goodbye.
Why did you have to go? You were too young to die!!!

You will always be a friend to me,
I will cherish our friendship, your memory.
When I look back at the things we have done,
the competitiveness, the sport, especially the fun;
I smile and I have a warm glow in my heart,
You were my brother, my friend - in my life you will always be a part.

Goodbye my friend; Goodbye.
I'll see you when I get there; When it's my time to die.
