Lyrics

Black friend of the night Why did you leave in such a hurry? White friend of the day You left us juggling our worries Never say goodbye For we'll all be with you someday Fond adieus but never say goodbye Like lovers in the past They swim and surface in our memories Questions never asked I'll save them all for the next century Never say goodbye For we'll all be with you someday Fond adieus but never say goodbye Tell us what's over the horizon Is it worth the chance To hang around for more suprising? Never say goodbye For we'll all be with you someday Fond adieus but never say goodbye Black friend of the night Why did you leave?
