Suzy Bogguss - Saying Goodbye to a FriendLyrics

If I lose my concentration Disappear from the conversation Don't mind me I'm saying goodbye to a friend I try to start each day out cheerful But if my eyes get blue and tearful Please understand I'm saying goodbye to a friend I broke a dish while I was washing dishes Fell to the floor in a million pieces It's not just something you can pick up in your hand These little that shouldn't matter Make something inside me shatter And I'm on my knees Saying goodbye to a friend [Chorus:] It's like the end of an era Like a scene in a rear view mirror I thought I'd got past it Now I'm looking at it again Saying goodbye to a friend All our secret dreams and fears All that's left of those hard earned years Kick up like dry leaves And drift off on the wind Just when I think I've let it go I catch a chill and that wind will blow I'm out in the cold Saying goodbye to a friend [chorus]
