Lyrics
Last Night I Said Goodbye to My Friend"
Last night I said goodbye to my friend
last night I said goodbye to my friend
Last night I saw his face and cried
last night I wiped the tears from my eyes
I sat with my friend
I kissed his cheek and held his hand
Last night I said goodbye to my friend
Last night I said goodbye to my friend
last night I said goodbye to my friend
Last night I saw his face and cried
last night I wiped the tears from my eyes
I sat with my friend
and I held his hand
Last night I said goodbye to my friend
Always miss you and that's the truth
we've been friends so long and I love you
I can't believe this happened, it can't be real
I don't know what to do or say or feel
Last night I said goodbye to my friend
As the mighty have fallen, all the idols fall
you were always saying you were ten feet tall
You know it's not for real
I don't know what to do or say or feel
Last night I said goodbye to my friend
Last night I said goodbye to my friend
Last night I said goodbye to my friend
Last night I said goodbye to my friend
