I would have loved to say goodbye
A lonely farewell song
For you and I
Blue note moody Jazz
Razzmatazz
I would have loved to take your hand
Before you go and reach that Promised Land
A final: Take care, my son
You taught me how to walk and
How to run and not to go astray
How to womanize
In that old school way
Good times, they weren't always easy
But love can heal when accusations fly
And just like in your music
You knew how to ad-lib your life
I would have loved to say goodbye
A lonely farewell song
For you and I
Blue note moody Jazz
Razzamatazz
I would have loved to take your hand
Before you join that glory land
In Miles' and Louie's all star band
A final smile: Take care, my son
Straight from your heart
I would have loved to say goodbye
