Intro
Verse 1
So Soft And Sweet, Your Tiny Fingers Wrapped Around Mine
Brought You Home In A Button Up Onesie
Soon It Was Puddles Splashed And Belly Laughs And Quiet Nap Times
First Day Of School I Wiped Those Tears From Your Eyes
N.c.
And I Said
Chorus
Goodbye For Now, But Not Forever
You’ll Have To Spread Your Wings And Fly Today
Ms. Cameron’s Here, We’ll Have To Hurry, She’s Taking Roll
Hug Me One More Time And Know, This Is Only
Good-Good-Good-Goodbye For Now, But Not Forever
Verse 2
Your Duffle Bags Are Packed And Neatly Stacked, Your Hands Wrapped ‘Round Mine
Leaving Home In Your Combat Boots And Army Green
Soon It’s M4 Blasts, And Endless Laps, Lights Out At Nine
I Try Not To Cry, But The Tears Stream Down My Face (As I Say)
Chorus
Goodbye For Now, But Not Forever
You’ll Have To Spread Your Wings And Fly Away
Your Bus Is Here, Go On Hurry, They’re Calling Roll
Hug Me One More Time And Know, This Is Only
Good-Good-Good-Goodbye For Now, But Not Forever
Good-Good-Good-Goodbye For Now, But Not Forever
Solo
Verse 3
You Called Me On The Phone, You’re Coming Home, In Late December
We Talked Just Like We Always Do
That Day You Gave Your Life You Stayed To Fight, Had No Surrender
Sergeant First Class Handed Me A Note From You (And It Read)
Chorus
Goodbye For Now, But Not Forever
I Had To Spread My Wings And Fly Away
Saint Peter’s Here, I’ll Have To Hurry, He’s Taking Roll
Think Of Me Everyday And Know This Is Only
Good-Good-Good-Goodbye For Now
Good-Good-Good-Goodbye For Now-Ow
Good-Good-Good-Goodbye For Now
Good-Good-Good-Goodbye For Now-Ow
Outro
Ohhhhhhhhhhh (Not Forever)
Ohhhhhhhhhhh (Not Forever)
Ohhhhhhhhhhh (Not Forever)
