Farewell:
Things change. Farewell, farewell my friend
Things change. Farewell my friend
But Farewells they’re not, they’re not forever
They mean I‘ll miss you until we meet again

I am dancing through the night as if there’s no tomorrow
These are times full of joy - without sorrow
We are drinking lots of beer, we’re not asking our livers
Our dreams come and go like water in the rivers

Then I realized what I was never told
Sometimes it hurts when you get old

You’re not another page in my book of memories
I’ll keep on telling our stories
Now the day has come we’re standing at the crossroad
Is this the ending of our episode?

And all that I can see is another memory
Let them go, let them go
You can’t keep the status quo
Let them go, let them go
It’s gonna hurt I know
Let them go, let them go
Let them go, let them go
Let them go, let them go
Let them go, let them go
And when you found peace, you’ll see more than memories

Fabulous song and having heard the acoustic, I can honestly attest, I shall not want a studio version.

[Christian-khmw]

BRAVO!!!👍🏻❤🌞 and by the way... why one thumbs down? 🥴

[KingJellyfishII]

I'm not sure whether to talk German or Gaelic... brilliant

[cjb]

You guys should do an acoustic session of James Brain. That song is the most beautiful song ever.

[fabriziosantalena]

Grandi quando in tour Nord italy Padova Venice Verona

[Chlupac]

I am having trouble letting this song go.... well...maybe just one more Farewell :)
