So Long Lyrics - Singles - Corey Cyr

Soon I'll be left with no words to write 

Staring into that cold bitter night 

I'll be left with no stories to tell 

And I'll hear that most lonesomest bell 

This song chimes out that most awful sound 

Of those ringin' bells as I tell everyone round 

That I love them so but do bid them adieu 

For I'll never know when my time is through 

So it's so long and fare-thee-well 

When it's my time to go 

No tongue may tell 

So long and goodbye 

For nobody knows 

When it'll be my time to die 

Wont you tell mother, and father, and friends 

That I loved them all dearly come time for the end 

Tell all my grandkids, and daughters, and sons 

That I tried to do all that I knew could be done 

Wont you please be sure to tell my fair love 

That I'll be watching her from the blue skies above 

And if she so happens to find her a man 

I hope that she knows that I understand 

So it's so long and fare-thee-well 

When it's my time to go 

No tongue may tell 

So long and goodbye 

For nobody knows 

When it'll be my time to die 

They say that every dog has his day 

I'm way past my day and well on my way 

Don't know where I come, but know where I'm bound 

To be lyin' 6 feet dead underground 

For now I'm doin' all the best that I can 

To tell everybody living in this great land 

That all their lives matter and their voices is strong 

If we get together we can fix this world gone wrong 

So it's so long and fare-thee-well 

When it's my time to go 

No tongue may tell 

So long and goodbye 

For nobody knows 

When it'll be my time to die
