Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Down by the lake
Warm afternoon
Breezes carry children's balloons
Once upon a time
Not long ago
She lived in a house by the grove
And she recalls the day
When she left home
[Verse 2]
Long goodbyes
Make me so sad
I have to leave right now
And though I hate to go
I know it's for the better
[Verse 3]
Long goodbyes
Make me so sad
Forgive my leaving now
You know I'll miss you so
And days we spent together
[Verse 4]
Long in the day
Moon on the rise
She sighs, with a smile in her eyes
In the park
It's late after all
She sits and stares at the wall
And she recalls the day
When she left home
[Verse 5]
Long goodbyes
Make me so sad
I have to leave right now
And though I hate to go
I know it's for the better
[Verse 6]
Long goodbyes
Make me so sad
Forgive my leaving now
You know I'll miss you so
And days we spent together
