Roger Whittaker (born 22 March 1936) is an Anglo-Kenyan singer-songwriter and musician. His music can be described as easy listening or perhaps best as ballads. He is best known for his baritone singing voice and trademark whistling ability. American audiences are most familiar with his 1970 hit "New World in the Morning" and his 1975 hit "The Last Farewell," the latter of which is his only single to hit the Billboard Hot 100 (it made the Top 20) and also hit #1 on the Adult Contemporary chart. more »

The sun has set and golden clouds
Gleaming in the evening sky
I must confess, I’d always hoped
Today would pass me by

Oh dad, I really hate to see
The sadness in your eyes
We always knew this day would come
It can’t be a surprise

We had a special day together
You were always my best friend
But the princess and the old king
Knew this day would end

A perfect day, a perfect day with you
Just a perfect day of perfect hours, no other word would do
A perfect day, a day for you and I
Now the evening shadows chill my heart and I can’t say goodbye

It was always I who said, "I’ll see you soon"
When you were young
So many things we left unsaid
So many songs unsung

Dad, don’t worry now I’m grown
It’ll be okay
You taught me well, so trust me now
And I’ll be on my way

We had a special day together
You were always my best friend
But the princess and the old king
Knew this day would end

A perfect day, a perfect day with you
Just a perfect day of perfect hours, no other word would do
A perfect day, a day for you and I
Now the evening shadows chill my heart and I can’t say goodbye

A perfect day, a day for you and I
Now the evening shadows chill my heart and I can’t say
I’m leaving home, goodbye
