Last Goodbye Songtext
von Saliva

House lights fade, and crowd′s still humming
And echoes ring from the things you've done
You gave love for all the people
Miles of mercy under the sun
You sang for the broken and the believers
For every kid who felt alone
Never chased all the silver and gold
You turned every road into home

No, you never needed a spotlight
Just a reason to stand and fight

No, this ain′t a last goodbye
Just the end of the show tonight
Words still alive and every song we sing
We'll keep your memory burning bright
You lived like a simple kind of man
Heart wide open and a steady hand
If this is where your story ends
So long, my friend, until we meet again
So long, my friend, until we meet again


Never forgot red, white, and blue
Letters from soldiers you kept with you
Prayed for peace, but you stood for freedom
And you shook every hand that reached for you
You left your mark on every road you walked
Like you had nothing left to lose (nothing left to lose)
You never claimed to be a hero
But you carried hope in your boots
You said, "Love 'em while you got ′em"
′Cause time won't ever wait

No, this ain′t a last goodbye
Just the end of the show tonight
Words still alive and every song we sing
We'll keep your memory burning bright
You lived like a simple kind of man
Heart wide open and a steady hand
If this is where your story ends
So long, my friend, until we meet again

Curtain falls, but the crowd′s still singing
Name in lights, but the soul keeps ringing
Heaven knows why you were called home
But your voice still carries on


No, this ain't a last goodbye
You′re still riding every midnight drive
Drinks up, raise a toast tonight
Keep your memory burning bright
You lived like a simple kind of man
Heart wide open and a steady hand
If this is where your story ends
So long, my friend, until we meet again

Yeah, so long, my friend, until we meet again
So long, my friend, until we meet again
