Waving Goodbye To A Crying Child

(Instrumental)

I've feared this day for so long

Through many months of the year

It is your time to leave me

And I can't keep you from running

Many nights so cold

From letting you take hold

Of what should be your life

And I can't make yours into my own

(Instrumental)

I can't tear away from what I will see

You taking part from me will be a hard reality

Even though it's best

Lord

It feels like pain

I'm waving goodbye to a crying child

Cause I know she feels the strain

Too

(Instrumental)

I'm waving goodbye with a tear in my eye

But they're tears of joy

But sometimes I cry

Cause I know it's the last time I'd see your face

Running around all over the place

(I'm waving goodbye with a tear in my eye)

(But they're tears of joy)

(But sometimes I cry)

(Cause I know it's the last time I'll see your face)

(Running around all over the place)
