Goodbye, My Friend Lyrics

We gather here together, to try to stitch up these wounds

Knowing we'll wake up tomorrow, still bloody, still bruised

I didn't recognize you, as I stood there in denial

That couldn't be your body, I've never seen you without a smile

There's no silver lining, no proverb to make it right

Can you hear me where you are, is there more on the other side

I thought this life was easy

I tried so hard to pretend

I guess this is goodbye, my friend

The sun rose that next morning, but it wasn't quite as bright

I swear I saw the sunflowers, hang their heads and cry

It all heals in time, but this will never be just fine

We'll just keep on living, and remember how you shined

There's no silver lining, no proverb that makes it right

Were you crying out for help, did I hear you, did I try

I thought this life was easy

I tried so hard to pretend

I guess this is goodbye, my friend

I thought this life was easy

I tried so hard to pretend

You were somebody's daughter

You were everybody's friend

I guess this is goodbye, my friend
