Farewell, farewell is a lonely sound

Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: Farewell, farewell is a lonely sound, And always brings a sigh; But give to me when lov'd ones part, That sweet old word "good bye," That sweet old word "good bye." That sweet old word "good bye." But give to me when lov'd ones part, That sweet old word "good bye." Farewell, farewell, may do for the gay, When pleasure's throng is nigh, But give to me that better word That comes from the heart "good bye," That comes from the heart "good bye," That comes from the heart "good bye." But give to me that better word That comes from the heart "good bye." Adieu, adieu, we hear it oft With a tear, perhaps with asigh, But the heart feels most when the lips move not, And the eye speks the gentle "good bye," And the eye speks the gentle "good bye," And the eye speks the gentle "good bye." But the heart feels most when the lips move not, And the eye speks the gentle "good bye." Farewell, farewell is never heard, When the tear's in the mother's eye, Adieu, adieu, she speaks it not, But my love, "good bye," "good bye;" But my love, "good bye," "good bye," But my love, "good bye," "good bye." Adieu, adieu, she speaks it not, But my love, "good bye," "good bye."
