I never thought one day you'd be gone, away forever more No one can say, no one could explain why you were taken Oh, where are you now? Could I get there somehow? It's time to say goodbye Block out the sun and pack up the sky Don't let my tears start to make you cry Each time I try to say my goodbye Try to stop asking why Tell me it's true, tell me there's something more Another time for love One day I'll know, one day I'll be there Will you be waiting? Oh, where are you now? Could I get there somehow? It's time to say goodbye Block out the sun and pack up the sky Don't let my tears start to make you cry Each time I try to say my goodbye Try to stop asking why Try to stop asking why, yea Where are you now? Could I get there somehow? It's time to say goodbye Block out the sun and pack up the sky Don't let my tears start to make you cry Each time I try to say my goodbye Try to stop asking why, way Try to say my goodbye
