Verse 1
Time is my dear friend
Old friends slip away
Setting of the sun
The ending of this day
There is so much more
I wish I could do
For many are called
But chosen, few
Chorus
Goodnight to you, my dear
Sleep on without a fear
For the night is when the angels speak
And the evening brings what wise men seek
A moment to rest our weary head
And remember the words and what we said
And pray for a chance to try again
So goodnight to you, my friend
Verse 2
Friends take so much time
And then just stroll away
Dreams are hard to find
So doubt can rule the day
Yet I live my life for the chance there will be
A moment on Earth that’s Heavenly
Chorus 2
Goodbye to fear, my dear
Embrace the love so near
Yes, the treasure of my heart, you see
Spills its gold and shares of all that’s free
To sense the breath of God deep inside
And inhale the power of hope, to never hide
And laugh at your lack til the end
Good life to you, my friend.
