Farewell Is a Lonely Sound

(Farewell farewell my love, farewell farewell my love)

Farewell is a lonely sound

When told to someone you love

You know, you hurt inside as you wonder why

You must leave the one that you love

Saying goodbye to someone you love

Is so hard for any man

You say it's just for a while, then you force a smile

And you hope she'll understand

Then a tear appears in her eyes

As she tightly holds your hand

Then you let her know that it's time to go

You must leave while you can

Oh but, farewell is a lonely sound

When told to someone you love

You know, you hurt inside as you wonder why

You must leave the one that you love

(Farewell farewell my love, farewell farewell my love)

I'm leaving darling, but I'll be, back one day

Ooh every silent step you take

Each one hurts your heart

As you board the train, you feel the pain

That starts as you depart, yeah

You wipe your eyes so she can't see

Cos a man should never cry

Now there's just a trace of her crying face

As you wave to her goodbye, that's why

Farewell is a lonely sound

When told to someone you love

You know, you hurt inside as you wonder why

You must leave the one that you love

I don't wanna leave you baby, I don't wanna say goodbye no, no

Oooh cos it hurts inside, and you wonder why

You must leave the one that you love

Baby baby, farewell is a lonely sound

When told to someone you love

You know you hurt inside as you wonder why
