"Time to Say Goodbye" — the final blues farewell. Goodbye with dignity.
There was a time when I loved you
That was a time baby, you made blue
There's a time for everything baby
Now it's time to say we're through
Remember the time baby, you made me cry
And the times baby, you broke my heart
But there's a time for everything baby
Now it's time for us to part
They say that time, time brings 'bout a change
And I know baby, I know that's no lie
In time I will forget you baby
So it's time to say goodbye
Знаете ли вы, что...
- A B.B. King recording. The goodbye — the formal, final departure — requires a certain dignity in the blues tradition. Leaving well is as important as everything that came before.
