Don't it seem like the time goes on
|
And here we are still carrying on
|
Reaching out for one another
|
Like a telephone call from an old friend or a brother
|
And you are there to share this song in the making
|
Goodbye don't mean I'm gone
|
|
I know how alone you are
|
When it's so hard to be so far
|
From the ones who mean the most to you
|
When you would so much rather have them close to you
|
I hope you know you haven't been forsaken
|
Goodbye don't mean I'm gone
|
|
I'll never be what you think you see in me
|
If I can help you deal with what you see as real
|
That makes me glad to have known you
|
|
Missing you the way I do
|
You know I'd like to see more of you
|
But it's all I can do to be a mother
|
(My baby's in one hand, I've a pen in the other)
|
You know my love is always there for the taking
|
And goodbye don't mean I'm gone
|
