Broken Hearts

Goodbye My Friend

By Deborah McCarrickPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Our hearts are breaking, forever aching

And now the sky's turned black

You know that we'd do anything

To bring you home and have you back

Our shattered lives feel empty

How do we carry on?

How will we ever smile again

Now that you are gone

You left us with a legacy

One we won't forget

You've left behind your friends

And family, but yet....

We'll never let the thought of you

Be a distant past

Forever in our thoughts

A memory that lasts

If we could turn the clock back

We'd do things that we should

To see your smiling face again

We really wish we could

To hear your voice, I'd give the world

To take away the pain

You know that we'd do anything

To see you once again

And now you're resting peacefully

So we have to say goodbye

It's time to let you go and fly

With the angels in the sky
