'Til we meet again, my friend, I so dislike good-byes. They seem to say, The end is come, The bond between us dies. Say. 'Til we meet again, my friend, Our parting's not foreverg Good-byes are better left unsaid When our paths must sever. Say. 'Til we meet again, my friend, But never say, good-bye. Good-byes can only mean the end- They're not for you and I. And when death does the eyelids close And calls one Home on high, We'll meet again on Heaven's shore So do not say Good-bye. Alan Roundy Geneva M. Frost
