Lyrics

1. Just “Goodbye” forever
And each tie you sever
Two words are spoken, One heart is broken
But ‘ere you go, just remember dear

Refrain
“Forever” means when summer brings the roses
They’ll waken mem’ries in your heart
“Forever” means the songs we love, together
Will lose their sweetness when we part
“Forever” dear, means that we near
The twilight of a day sublime
When you say “Goodbye forever,” just remember
That “Forever” is a long, long time

2. From afar I’ll love you
Ev’ry star above you
Dreams will awaken, Tho’ I’m forsaken
Back to my own I will come again
