What About My "Good Bye?"

Today is a day filled with
confusion, sadness and pain.

For today my friend has left
me alone.

I raise up my hands I raise
them high
For today my friend has died.

I raise up my eyes, I raise
them high, for today my
friend has died.

I raise up my eyebrows, I raise them
high and I smile for
today my friend has died.

I raise up my voice, I raise it
high and rejoice.

For my friend will always
live and be apart of me.
