Time to Say Goodbye
Andrea Bochelli And Sarah Brightman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And when I dream the words are missing
Yes I know that in a room so full of light
That all the light is missing
But I don't see you with me, with me
Close up the windows, bring the sun to my room
Through the door you've opened
That you met in the darkness
Time to say goodbye
Horizons are never far
Would I have to find them alone
Without true light of my own?
With you I will go
On ships over seas
That I now know
No, they don't exist anymore
It's time to say goodbye
When you were so far away
I sit alone and dream of the horizon
Then I'd know that you are here with me
Building bridges over land and sea
Shine a blinding light for you and me
To see, for us to be
Time to say goodbye
Horizons are never far
Would I have to find them alone
Without true light of my own?
With you I will go
on ships over seas
That I now know
No, they don't exist anymore
Without true light of my own
With you I will go
Horizons are never far
Would I have to find them alone
Without true light of my own?
With you I will go on ships over seas
That I now know
No, they don't exist anymore
I love you
In Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman's duet "Time to Say Goodbye," the lyrics paint a picture of two people who are deeply in love but separated by distance. As the first verse begins, the singer describes sitting alone and dreaming, but without the words to express those dreams. The room is full of light, yet something is missing, and the singer longs to be with the other person. The second verse provides a sense of hope, though: the door has been opened, and light has been let in. Perhaps this is a metaphor for the reunion of the two lovers, who will finally be able to see each other again after a long period of separation.
The chorus, "Time to Say Goodbye," reinforces the theme of separation and the inevitability of endings. The two people must part ways, but they both know that their love will remain, and that there will always be new horizons to explore. The phrase "horizons are never far" is particularly poignant, as it suggests that while the lovers may be physically apart, their connection and love will remain strong.
The final verse is particularly beautiful, as it expresses the idea that love can bring people together even when they are far apart. The singer dreams of building bridges over land and sea to connect with the other person, and imagines a blinding light that will guide them both towards each other. The repetition of the phrase "with you I will go" reinforces the idea of journeying towards a brighter future together.
Overall, "Time to Say Goodbye" is a moving and heartfelt expression of love and separation, with lyrics that capture the intense emotions of being apart from someone you care deeply about.

When I am alone I sit and dream
When I'm by myself, I close my eyes and imagine
And when I dream the words are missing
But sometimes I can't quite grasp the right words
Yes I know that in a room so full of light
Even in a bright, cheery room
That all the light is missing
Something can still be missing
But I don't see you with me, with me
I can't envision you beside me in my dreams
Close up the windows, bring the sun to my room
Please shut the windows, but let sunshine enter my space
Through the door you've opened
Through the one entrance you left unlocked
Close inside of me the light you see
Please help me capture the light you possess
That you met in the darkness
The light you discovered in the dark
Time to say goodbye
It's time to say farewell
Horizons are never far
The horizon is always within reach
Would I have to find them alone
But would I have to navigate them alone?
Without true light of my own?
Without my own source of enlightenment?
With you I will go
But if you're with me
On ships over seas
We could traverse oceans and continents
That I now know
We can explore places I've never been to before
No, they don't exist anymore
Even if they're memories, they're not tangible
When you were so far away
When you were physically distant
I sit alone and dream of the horizon
I imagine the possibilities beyond the horizon
Then I'd know that you are here with me
But then I realize you are actually here with me
Building bridges over land and sea
We're creating pathways across terrain and water
Shine a blinding light for you and me
Illuminate the path ahead of us
To see, for us to be
So that we can understand the steps we need to take
I love you
I care about you deeply

Quando sono solo
Sogno all’orizzonte
E mancan le parole
Sì lo so che non c’è luce
In una stanza quando manca il sole
Se non ci sei tu con me, con me
Su le finestre
Mostra a tutti il mio cuore
Che hai acceso
Chiudi dentro me
La luce che
Hai incontrato per strada
Time to say goodbye
Paesi che non ho mai
Veduto e vissuto con te
Adesso si li vivrò
Con te partirò
Su navi per mari
Che, io lo so
No, no, non esistono più
It’s time to say goodbye

I was at work when I discovered this song. My husband was in the hospital with leukemia and he was losing the battle. I cried like a baby. 22 years later I still cry. I still talk to my husband a lot because I believe he can hear. Our bodies die but our spirit lives on.
