Won’t You Say Goodbye – ROBERT HINCHLIFFE

V1 Oh won’t you say goodbye, to a friend we know,
For the laughter shared, when the good times rolled,
Oh its bin so long, and we knew him well,
Oh won’t you say goodbye, to a friend we know.

V2 Oh won’t you stay awhile, and remember this,
We were young and strong, and the wild nights flowed,
Those days gone by, still so bright and clear,
Oh won't you say goodbye, to a friend we know

V3 Oh lets have one more drink, to a friend we know,
Lets all say farewell, and may his spirit roam,
Lets talk once more, and let the good times go,
Oh won't you (lets) say farewell, to a friend we know,

V4 L-o-r-d if you hear me now, please let this one through,
F-o-r his life was hard, but his aim stayed true,
Though he’s left us now, we’ll keep the love he gave,
Please let his spirit fly, in a better place

V5 So lets sing one last song, for a friend we knew,
Lets talk with joy, (for) he would want us too,
Try to laugh once more, and let his memory grow,
Won’t you say goodbye……………., to a friend we knew.
