...FAREWELL IS A LONELY SOUND... by Jimmy Ruffin

*Released 1970*

(Original Key: Ab)

Intro:

(Farewell, fare-well my love),

(Farewell, fare-well my love).

Chorus 1:

Farewell is a lonely sound, when told to someone you love.

You know you hurt inside, as you wonder why,

You must leave the one you love.

Verse 1:

Saying goodbye to someone you love, is so hard for any man.

You say its just for a while, and you force a smile,

And you hope she'll under-stand.

Then a tear appears in her eyes, as she tightly holds your hand.

Then you let her know, that it's time to go,

You must leave while you can. Oh but;

Chorus 2:

Farewell is a lonely sound, when told to someone you love.

You know you hurt inside, as you wonder why,

You must leave the one you love.

Interlude:

(Farewell, fare-well my love),

(Farewell, fare-well my love).

*KEY CHANGE*

Verse 2:

With every silent step you take, each one hurts your heart.

As you board the train, you feel the pain,

That starts as you de-part.

You wipe your eyes so she cant see, 'cos a man should never cry.

Now there's just the trace, of her crying face,

As you wave to her good-bye. That's why...

Chorus 3:

Farewell is a lonely sound, when told to someone you love.

You know you hurt inside, as you wonder why,

You must leave the one you love.

Chorus 4:

Farewell is a lonely sound, when told to someone you love.

You know you hurt inside, as you wonder why,

You must leave the one you love.
