Say Goodbye
Ten Times A Day Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So now we'll go onward to where life will lead us
We weren't the best of friends
But at this moment I feel much closer to you
It makes me realize to make the most of my time
And spend some with you.
So say goodbye we have to try to find
Someplace to stay to settle down
Without a frown retain what makes us complete
We'll never see what use to be
The basis of our lives the rembers glow
Drifting slow to nothingness...
So dry out your eyes try not to stare
A path is waiting it is right there
Nothing is in sight horizons
Not bright imagination is is failing me again




The trail disappears on account of my fear
So I'll write it once again.
