I've often thought about this moment
I've dreaded it tonight
In the morning I must leave you
Of course I'll write
Don't it all seem futile?
Don't it make you mad?
That to know you once were happy
You've got to feel sad
Lose your heart tonight
You know it might just be
A goodbye
If I find the words to say
Let the night turn to day
And be here by my side
To know you're not alone
Is more than money can buy
And when all you've got to give
Is pain and pain
I'm part of you
I'll handle it with care
You're with me tonight
I'll be safely there
You and I can always be

No love like the first
No sadness like goodbye
With pain in your heart
You make a new start
You make a brave try
Lose your heart tonight
You know it might just be a goodbye
If I find the words to say
Let the night turn to day
And be here by my side
To know you're not alone
It's more than money can buy
And when all you've got to give
Is part of you
I'll handle it with care
You're with me tonight
Life says
You're safely there
