Goodbey Don't Mean I'm Gone

Don't it seem like time goes on
And here we are still carryin' on
Reaching out for one another
Like a telephone call from an old friend or a brotherAnd you are there to share this song in the making
Goodbye don't mean I'm goneI know how alone you are
When it's so hard to be so far
From the ones who mean the most to you
When you would so much rather have them close to youI hope you know you haven't been forsaken
Goodbye don't mean I'm goneI'll never be what you think you see in me
If I can help you deal with what you see as real
That makes me glad to have known youMissing you the way I do
You know I'd like to see more of you
But it's all I can do to be a mother
My baby's in one hand, I've a pen in the otherYou know my love is always there for the taking
And goodbye don't mean I'm goneOh hon', you know my love is always there for the taking
And goodbye don't mean I'm goneGoodbye don't mean I'm gone
Goodbye don't mean I'm gone
