Nothing is ever
Meant to last forever
It's a cliché 'cause it's true
I don't feel no regrets
Just so i can remember
Is it too late to say thank you

You caught me just in time
Before it got too late
Now nothing'll be the same
You've forever changed my fate

First i was nobody
Till you gave me the key
Opened the door for me
Then i was somebody

I won't cry, no i won't shed a tear
'Cause i'll never forget all the years
That you brought me along for the ride
Took the world on side by side

So long, goodbye
I'll see you when the day turns into night
So long, goodbye
I'll see you when the day turns into night

I'm a little bit older
A little bit wiser
'Cause you taught me how to do it right
Only now that it's done
And the war, it is won
I can see that it was worth the fight

You gave me everything
Didn't want anything in return
With every step you'd take
Every move you'd make, i learnt

First i was nobody
Till you gave me the key
Opened the door for me
Then i was somebody

I won't cry, no i won't shed a tear
'Cause i'll never forget all the years
That you brought me along for the ride
Took the world on side by side

So long, goodbye
I'll see you when the day turns into night
So long, goodbye
I'll see you when the day turns into night

So long, goodbye
So long, goodbye
