So Long, Farewell lyrics

All I hear is silence

and numbness is what I feel.

The clock ticks on a different floor,

it all seems so unreal.

The message came by mail today

and my heart is in my boots.

Too young to go, too good to die,

and sorrow fills the room.

So long, farewell, my dear friend.

You'll always be with me 

on every road and every bend.

I won't forget you.

We were as thick as thieves,

like moon and shine,

but no rope's as long as time.

We never thought this trip could end.

Farewell, my friend.

Relics of the old times

pinned on the basement wall,

we shared a dream and broke our backs

for what's today damn small.

We went for broke in Cape Town

and we shipwrecked in Phnom Penh.

Yeah, all those distant seas we sailed, 

I'd sail with you again.

So long, farewell, my dear friend.

You'll always be with me 

on every road and every bend.

I won't forget you.

We were as thick as thieves,

like moon and shine,

but no rope's as long as time.

We never thought this trip could end.

Farewell, my friend.

So long, farewell, my dear friend.

You'll always be with me 

on every road and every bend.

I won't forget you.

We were as thick as thieves,

like moon and shine,

but no rope's as long as time.

We never thought this trip could end.

Farewell, my friend.
