Jimmy climbs on board that old yellow bus
It sure looks big in his little eyes
His mama waves as her tears kick up the dust
It's never easy to say goodbye

Julie Raye, in her pearl white wedding gown
Has found her wings and it's time to fly
It's all her dad can do to keep from breaking down
It's never easy to say goodbye

It ain't easy to ever say goodbye
It ain't easy letting go of the ones you love
But believe me we'll meet again by and by
If not here, then somewhere up above

I've had some friends
That I lost along the way
They've been called on down the line
Though their time was short
[- From: http://www.elyrics.net -]
I think about them every day
And it ain't easy to say goodbye

It ain't easy to ever say goodbye
It ain't easy letting go of the ones you love
But believe me we'll meet again by and by
If not here, then somewhere up above

Now the time has come to go our separate ways
And it's alright if you want to cry
And though I know we'll meet again someday
It's never easy to say goodbye

It ain't easy to ever say goodbye
It ain't easy letting go of the ones you love
But believe me we'll meet again by and by
If not here, then somewhere up above
