I'll say goodbye and be on my way
For I've some place to go
And sadly I know
This is where you always must stay

I'm but a drifter and time with take me farther
Than where this trail will lead me today
I've some place to go and sadly I know
I'll say goodbye and be on my way

And memories will hold your youth
Where your hair will never turn grey
And my heart will hold the proof
That love will never fade away

May God bless you and keep you in his care
Like an angel he has made
And though there could be much more to share
I'll say goodbye and be on my way
