Goodbye Roseland

(album: Brave New World - 1999)

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

I was your friend
Father and brother
And you were my wife
My 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
