Shadows of Goodbye

Echoes of a distant past

Faded memories that last

Shadows of a childhood sealed in pain

Words like thunder, falling like rain

A man I hardly knew, yet he shaped my fate

Lost in the silence, regret too late

I carry the scars, hidden deep inside

Trying to find some peace, in the tears I've cried

Goodbye, I’m leaving behind the years of regret

Holding onto a love I never quite met

In my heart I wish I could mend what's torn

But you're gone now, and I’m reborn

Battles fought behind closed doors

Fighting shadows on distant shores

Your eyes were storms, your words were blades

A love so broken, I’m afraid

But I see the man beneath the pain

A soul so lost, crying out in vain

Goodbye, I’m leaving behind the years of regret

Holding onto a love I never quite met

In my heart I wish I could mend what's torn

But you're gone now, and I’m reborn

Memories haunt me like a ghost

Trying to find what mattered most

At the end, I realize

Love’s a hope that never dies

So I’ll mourn the father I never knew

And find my way, to start anew

Goodbye, father, I set you free

In my heart, your memory
