If you must go and leave today I won't protest or stand in your way I'll hold you close until it's time Just know that I won't say goodbye No final words from me I need something to believe So don't look back if you should cry Just kiss me please, don't say goodbye I always knew this day would come The desert cried that it had won But only part of us must die If you just go and don't say goodbye I'll wake next to you again Though I don't know how or when It's much too soon, so we must try To say: So long, don't say goodbye Don't say goodbye Don't say goodbye
