Time to Say Goodbye
F. Sartori Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I am alone I sit and dream
cnd 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
Close inside of me the light you see
That you met in the darkness

[Chorus]
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 overseas
That I now know
No, they don't exist anymore
It's time to say goodbye

[Verse 2]
When you were so far away
I sit alone and dreamt of the horizon
Then I 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

[Chorus]
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 overseas
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 overseas
That I now know
No, they don't exist anymore





[Outro]
I love you

When I am alone I sit and dream
In moments of solitude, I find myself lost in my thoughts


When I dream the words are missing
In my dreams, I struggle to find the right words to express my feelings


Yes, I know that in a room so full of light
Although surrounded by brightness


That all the light is missing
I still feel a sense of darkness


But I don't see you with me, with me
And you're not by my side


Close up the windows, bring the sun to my room
Shut out distractions, let the warmth in


Through the door you've opened
Embracing the opportunities you've presented


Close inside of me the light you see
Let your light shine within me


That you met in the darkness
To guide me out of the shadows


Time to say goodbye
It's time to part ways


Horizons are never far
New opportunities are always within reach


Would I have to find them alone?
Will I have to venture forth by myself?


Without true light of my own with you
Without your guidance and support


I will go on ships overseas
I will embark on new adventures


That I now know
Realizing that some things are no longer the same


No, they don't exist anymore
Recognizing that things have changed


I love you
Expressing my deep affection for you
