Lift your head and dry your tears, for our parting time is near. Just a kiss to cheer our hearts before we're gone. Well, you know it's hard to say, but it has to be that way. We'll never say goodbye, just say so long. We'll never say goodbye, little darling. And I hope you'll say the same when I have gone. Just one more kiss and let me hold your hand, dear. We'll never say goodbye, just say so long. I remember times when thoughts, like two kids we were full of thoughts. To join our hands so young we knew was wrong. Now that years have passed away, I regret those words to say. We'll never say goodbye, just say so long. We'll never say goodbye, little darling. And I hope you'll say the same when I have gone. Just one more kiss and let me hold your hand, dear. We'll never say goodbye, just say so long.
