She opens up her eyes and she knows today's the day
Marked on the calender's the twentieth of May
She'll be leaving soon but there are things she needs to do
Before she goes
She starts to pack her bags with all the things she's going to need
Just a few more hours, then she'll finally be free
She finishes her letter, dotting I's and crossing T's
And it reads
Goodbye, goodbye to all my friends
Goodbye, I'll be seeing you again
And if I'm gone, for too long
Will you tell the world I said
She's locking up her doors, her mother rings her on the phone
No one's there to answer, and the phone it rings alone
She's headed far away and there is nothing you can say
To maker her stay
Goodbye, goodbye to all my friends
Goodbye, I'll be seeing you again
And if I'm gone, for too long
Will you tell the world I said
Goodbye, goodbye to all my friends
Goodbye, I'll be seeing you again
And if I'm gone, for too long
Will you tell the world I said
Goodbye, goodbye
