Time to Say Goodbye
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
The song “Time to say goodbye” by Sarah Brightman and Andrea Bocelli is a beautiful and heartfelt song that speaks to the heart of the listener. The first verse, “When I am alone I sit and dream, 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” encapsulates the feeling of loneliness and yearning for someone’s presence. Even though the room may be bright, the absence of a loved one casts a shadow over everything else, and the singer can’t help but feel their absence.
The second verse, “Close up the windows, bring the sun to my room, through the door you've opened, close inside of me the light you see, that you met in the darkness” speaks to the idea of finding comfort and solace in the presence of a loved one. It’s as if the singer is asking their loved one to come into their world, to close up everything else, and bring the light and warmth that only they can provide. The chorus, “Time to say goodbye, horizons are never far, would I have to find them alone, without true light of my own?” conveys a sense of sadness and a fear of being alone. The singer realizes that without their loved one there as a guiding light, they’d be lost and without direction.
The final verse, “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” brings the song full circle. The singer is again dreaming of the horizon, but this time it’s not out of loneliness, but rather hope. They know that with their loved one, they can build bridges and create a world where they can be together, and shine a light for each other to follow. Overall, the song “Time to say goodbye” by Sarah Brightman and Andrea Bocelli is a beautiful and heartfelt reminder of the power of love and the comfort that it can bring.

When I am alone I sit and dream
When I am by myself I let my imagination wander
And when I dream the words are missing
But sometimes I can't quite put into words what I am imagining
Yes I know that in a room so full of light
Even though my surroundings are bright and cheerful
That all the light is missing
I still feel like something is missing
But I don't see you with me, with me
Because you are not here with me physically
Close up the windows, bring the sun to my room
So I shut out external distractions and focus on bringing some joy or hope into my own space
Through the door you've opened
I invite you to bring positivity and light into my world
Close inside of me the light you see
Please bring your brightness and happiness into my heart
That you met in the darkness
And don't forget that we met in a time of difficulty
Time to say goodbye
But now it is time to part ways
Horizons are never far
Even though we are separating, we are still connected in some way
Would I have to find them alone
But without your company, I am not sure what my path forward will look like
Without true light of my own?
Because I am not sure of my own inner strength and positivity
With you I will go
So I hope to take you with me in some way
On ships over seas
Perhaps we will both venture out to explore new worlds
That I now know
Possibly visiting places that you have already experienced
No, they don't exist anymore
But maybe those places we visited together only exist in our memories
Without true light of my own
Regardless, I know that I cannot navigate this journey without hope and positivity within myself
I love you
And I hope you know how much I care for you

Quando sono sola
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 accesso
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 sì li vivrò
Con te partirò
Su navi per mari
Che, io lo so
No, no, non esistono più
It's time to say goodbye
Quando sei lontana
Sogno all'orizzonte
E mancan le parole
E io sì lo so
Che sei con me, con me
Tu, mia luna, tu sei qui con me
Mio sole, tu sei qui con me
Con me, con me, con me
Time to say goodbye
Paesi che non ho mai
Veduto e vissuto con te
Adesso sì li vivrò
Con te partirò
Su navi per mari
Che, io lo so
No, no, non esistono più
Con te io li rivivrò
Con te partirò
Su navi per mari
Che, io lo so
No, no, non esistono più
Con te io li rivivrò
Con te partirò
Io con te

I lost my love of 45 years 8 months ago to illness. She was only 69 years old and so full of life. This song brings me to my knees. I only hope I can join her soon.

I lost my wife to cancer last month at 69 years old and will play this at her celebration of life. I too await our reunion.

Hang in there old timers. Everything will be alright
@lindas5745
They are not "old timers". 89 is old, not 69.
