Lyrics[]
Ratigan: Goodbye so soon
And isn't this a crime?
We know by now that time knows how to fly
So here's goodbye so soon
You'll find your separate way
With time so short I'll say so long
And go
So soon
Goodbye
You followed me, I followed you
We were like each other's shadows for a while
Now as you see, this game is through
So although it hurts, I'll try to smile
As I say
Goodbye so soon
And isn't this a crime?
We know by now that time knows how to fly
So here's goodbye so soon
You'll find your separate way
With time so short I'll say so long
And go
So soon
Goodbye
Chorus: Goodbye so soon
And isn't this a crime?
We know by now that time knows how to fly
So here's goodbye so soon
You'll find your separate way
With time so short I'll say so long
And go
So soon
Goodbye
Ratigan: You followed me, I followed you
We were like each other's shadows for a while
Now as you see, this game is through
So although it hurts, I'll try to smile
As I say
Goodbye so soon
And isn't this a crime?
We know by now that time knows how to fly
So here's goodbye so soon
You'll find your separate way
With time so short I'll say so long
And go
So soon
Goodbye
Goodbye, so soon...
And isn't it a shame?
We know by now
That time knows how to fly.
So here's goodbye so soon
We'll go our separate ways,
With time so short I'll say so long
And go, so soon,
Goodbye!
Goodbye, so soon...
And isn't it a shame?
We know by now
That time knows how to fly.
So here's goodbye so soon
We'll go our separate ways,
With time so short I'll say so long
And go, so soon,
Goodbye!
