Goodbyes are the Hardest to Say

They say that goodbyes are the hardest words to say
And they get harder day by day
So it is here that she lays
And it is here that she prays

How is it that a seven letter word
Is the hardest to be heard
Hello would rather be preferred
Or maybe for that word to fly like a bird

She hangs on by a thread
But stays on that road ahead
Goodbye is what she said
But a tear is what she shed

They say that goodbyes are the hardest words to say
But you have helped her not to go astray
You tell her that she'll be okay
And that you're there for her every single day
