Oh we never know where life will take us
I know it's just a ride on the wheel
And we never know when death will shake us
And we wonder how it will feel

Life's so fragile and love's so pure
We can't hold on but we try
We watch how quickly it disappears
And we never know why

So goodbye my friend
I know I'll never see you again
But the time together through all the years
Will take away these tears...

-Karla Bonoff, Goodbye My Friend, 1988.
