I
hate
goodbyes
they're so final
yet in conversations with friends
somehow it seems vital

Goodbye
we say it
no matter what the circumstance
but somehow i'm convinced
it's never truly final

Maybe a lover to his girl
on a long dark winter night
giving a "good-bye" kiss
Just doesn't seem right...

Or mabye its family
and it's finally time for you to fly
but for your final choice of words
you inevideably choose
"good-bye"

More likely than not
you've had to go
from the place that you've learned to love
but somehow you just know....

That good-bye just won't work
You see friendships you've made
and how they're suddenly
S             CA      T      T   ER      E                D
across the nations...

So, "I'll see you later" my dearest friends,
Sounds much more appropriate
because the journey's not nearly over---
and I couldn't do it without each of as my associates ;)
