Sayonara, sweetheart
Ciao, baby, so long
The new life is calling
My old life is forever gone

There was so much promise
Some realized and some unfulfilled
It was always sunset
and a sky filled with roses and gold

Sayonara, sweetheart
Ciao, baby, so long
The new life is calling
My old life is forever gone

One day, the world changed
I hold you and think of the past
Now, it's always unfolding
and things disappear way too fast

Sayonara

All you have to do
is look at me and I understand
You need me so much
I'll do everything that I can

Sayonara, sweetheart
Ciao, baby, so long
The new life is calling
My old life is forever gone
