This Is How We Say Goodbye Lyrics

He was a child of the Blackhills,He was restless,He was wild,and the blaze that was His life would not burn long.
Until He found His perfect other,Who made Him sing inside
He remembered all the words to sacred songs
The road was hard,He w**** its scars
He laughed with pride,and Lord He stood so tall
He said family is what matters most of all.
I hear Your voice,I see Your smile
I'm gonna bring Your spirit to Me for awhile
And so it goes,the years they fly...
this is how we say... goodbye

She was a child of Little Italy,a princess shining bright
She would sing and dance,by one and all.
She was adored at sixteen She met the man she would love for all her life
And wait for Him to come back from the war
Children came,love remained
Through all the joys and storms the fate could call
She said family is what matters most of all
I hear Your voice,I see Your smile
I'm gonna bring Your spirit to Me for awhile
And so it goes,the years they fly...
this is how we say... goodbye

But every life goes on,inside those that remain
And every Dream goes home to rest
There's no need to hide from sorrow or from pain
They help Me to remember you lived
So they met on one unlikely day.The Princess and the Brave
The time it took to share some coffee,one so small..
If they knew each others wisdom songs from a million miles away they'd say that family is what matters most of all

I hear Your voice,I see Your smile
I'm gonna bring Your spirit to Me for awhile
And so it goes,the years they fly
this is how we say... goodbye
this is how we say... goodbye
