Lyrics
Verse 1:
In the quiet of the night, I hear your laughter fade,
A melody of memories in the chords we played.
The stage feels so empty, like a puzzle with no piece,
Each note tells a story, but the silence wont cease.
Chorus:
Goodbye, my friend, its hard to let you go,
A brother in the music, a light that used to glow.
We shared our dreams and laughter, now its hard to pretend,
In this world without you, I just cant comprehend.
Verse 2:
We had plans and ambitions, a future bright and wide,
Now I walk this road alone, with you right by my side.
The songs we wrote together, they linger in my heart,
But the hardest part of all is knowing were apart.
Chorus:
Goodbye, my friend, its hard to let you go,
A brother in the music, a light that used to glow.
We shared our dreams and laughter, now its hard to pretend,
In this world without you, I just cant comprehend.
Bridge:
Ill keep your memory alive in every beat and rhyme,
With every note I play, youll be there every time.
Though the road is long and winding, and the nights are often cold,
Ill carry you through music, your story will be told.
Chorus:
Goodbye, my friend, its hard to let you go,
A brother in the music, a light that used to glow.
We shared our dreams and laughter, now its hard to pretend,
In this world without you, I just cant comprehend.
Outro:
So heres to you, my brother, as I say farewell today,
In my heart, youll always stay, in each note, youll find a way.
Goodbye, my friend, until we meet again,
Your spirit lives forever, in the music, in the band.
