Goodbye Roseland

There was a time when we were children Blue skies would shine and all was forgiven And there were heroes to guide us And we had family beside us And there were dreams to believe in Each and every day And I was your friend, father and brother And you were my wife, mistress and mother And through the good times and bad times We shared the love of a lifetime Oh, what a shame and a damn crime For it all to end So goodbye to Roseland How I wish I could stay To live in the memory Of your sweet, sweet day But every road that we travel has an end And so the time now has come to say "Farewell old friend" Well, Goodbye to Roseland I want you to know Just how much I miss you So I got to let go But all the love that you gave me will remain And every tear that I've cried has not been shed in vain
