i don't know where the time has gone, suddenly here we are alone, only a word before you go, everyone's waiting; so many friends to say goodbye, so many tears they'll have to cry, so many wings to help you fly where you are going;
and now a plane must take away my child that life has found, and you will be up in the sky, and i'll be on the ground, sending my love with you tonight;
i will be waiting, i will be waiting, here for you, here for you;
i don't know where the years have gone, suddenly here, and you have grown, it was like only yesterday when you were so young; but here is the day we had to see, always the same eternally, this is the way that it must be, now it is your world;
and so a plane must take away my child that time has found, and you will be up in the sky, and i'll be on the ground, sending my dreams with you tonight;
i will be waiting. i'm trying not to show, but seeing you go, is the hardest thing that i have known;
i will be waiting, don't worry 'bout me, i'll be alright i will be waiting, don't worry 'bout me, i'll be alright, here for you, here for you,
