I followed him, in a long black car, In a long line of cars, we headed into the stars We never played the game, we only headed on down the line And though he always left with her, still i knew that he was mine But i know that i will never see him again We never looked back, but we never looked ahead So it hit me like a heart attack, when i found out he was... And it was a summer day, but the leaves fell on the ground And the children remained at play, but they did so without a sound And i know that he will never be there again I know the sun turns around the earth They say otherwise, but the truth hurts And it was a long time ago, when he ran into his mother's arms And she held him oh so close, And she promised he would never come to harm But i know that she will never hold him again I've come just to say good-bye my friend Good-bye my friend.
