Here is the time when flowers lose petal
And others have to bloom
Here comes the time when the grass must be cut
And the mist lifts soon
Here I stand before you,
A person I barely know
Though crying I do for people I love
Here is my affection I couldn’t help but show
Farewell faraway friend
Farewell to you I only but met
Goodbye to the times we never spoke
Our hearts cry before the day is set
My goodbye is never farewell
And who am I to feel this sad
We never spoke, same interests we never felt
I’m sad for the friend I never had
Goodbye old place, goodbye my friend
A place I saw from a distance so far
Seeing you leave makes little difference
Though deep inside my heart is scarred
Here I stand before you
A person I barely know
This time I cry for a person I wish to ever love
Holding my affection another time I must show
Here is the time when roads slowly part
And others come together
Here comes the time when birds fly away
Leaving last thought in a falling feather
Farewell my friend
Farewell for now
Farewell my closest friend I never knew
Goodbye my friend
A sadness I feel, yet disavow
Goodbye my closest friend
Farewell right here,
Farewell
