Linda Ronstadt
"Goodbye, My Friend" lyrics

Goodbye, My Friend

Oh, we never know
Where life will take us
I know it's just a ride on the wheel
And we never know
When death will shake us
And we wonder how it will feel

So goodbye, my friend
I know I'll never see you again
But the time together
Through all the years
Will take away these tears
It's okay now
Goodbye, my friend

I've seen a lot of things
That make me crazy
And I guess I held on to you
We could've run away and left
Well, maybe
But it wasn't time and we both knew

So goodbye, my friend
I know I'll never see you again
But the love you gave me
Through all the years
Will take away these tears
I'm okay now
Goodbye, my friend

Life's so fragile
And love's so pure
We can't hold on but we try
We watch how quickly it disappears
And we never know why

But I'm okay now
Goodbye, my friend
You can go now
Goodbye, my friend
