Verse 1
Mirabelle Walked Out Of Mercy Convalescent
Like She Did Every Day Around Four
When She Couldn't Bear To Watch Him Stare Another Second
At The Faded Blue Tiles On The Floor
Before She Left She Would Hold Him Tight
And Move In Close To His Ear
Just In Case God Took Him That Night
This Would Be The Last Thing He'd Hear
Chorus
Don't Say Goodbye, Say Farewell
Here's To Life And Love And Laughter
I Won't Cry, You Know That I
Will Always Be Your Mirabelle
Verse 2
She Walked So Slowly Up The Stairs
To Their Home Since '45
She Thought Of All The Love They'd Made Right There
Since That Time
In His Faded Blue Chair, She Sat All Night
Remembering So Many Years Before
When His Country Asked For His Sacrifice
And He Said As He Left For The War
Chorus
Don't Say Goodbye
Say Farewell
Here's To Life And Love And Laughter
Please Don't Cry
You Know That I
Will Always Be Yours, Mirabelle
Verse 3
Mirabelle Walked In To Mercy Convalescent
Like She Did Every Morning As Planned
This Time She Knew Something Was Different
When She Took Hold Of His Hand
His Eyes Were Closed, His Face Was Gray
And She Prayed So Hard, "Lord
Please Don't Let It Be Too Late
Let Him Hear Me Just Once More"
Chorus
Don't Say Goodbye
Say Farewell
Here's To Life And Love And Laughter
Please Don't Cry
You Know That I
Will Always Be Your Mirabelle
