Goodbye
Farewell Symphony: Embracing Change and Wishing Happiness
Lyrics
Oh
Expressing a feeling of surprise or realization
Wrote you this song
The speaker created a song for the listener
And now you're gone
The listener has departed or left
So I guess that you wont hear it
Due to the departure, the listener may not hear the song
Lost me in the fall
The speaker feels abandoned or disconnected in the autumn
It's awfully cold
Describing the emotional state as extremely cold
I hope you found what you needed
Expressing hope that the listener has found what they needed
Life is better off
Reflecting on life being better without the listener
Is what I wish I could say now that your not here
Expressing a desire to say life is better now
Tell me if Im wrong
Seeking confirmation if the speaker is mistaken
But I dont think I have ever did you wrong my dear
Claiming innocence and stating not causing harm
I want whats best for you
Expressing a wish for the listener's well-being
Even if thats going on without me
Acceptance of the possibility of the listener moving on without the speaker
I still believe in you
Expressing continued belief in the listener
I just want you to be happy
Stating the primary desire for the listener to be happy
Oh
Repetition of the initial expression of surprise or realization
Wrote you this song
Repetition of creating a song for the listener
And now you're gone
Repetition of the listener's departure
So I guess that you wont hear it
Repetition of the idea that the listener may not hear the song
Lost me in the fall
Reiteration of feeling abandoned or disconnected in the autumn
It's awfully cold
Repetition of describing the emotional state as extremely cold
I hope you found what you needed
Reiteration of expressing hope for the listener's needs being met
Oh
Repetition of the initial expression of surprise or realization
Wrote you this song
Repetition of creating a song for the listener
And now you're gone
Repetition of the listener's departure
So I guess that you wont hear it
Repetition of the idea that the listener may not hear the song
Lost me in the fall
Reiteration of feeling abandoned or disconnected in the autumn
It's awfully cold
Repetition of describing the emotional state as extremely cold
I hope you found what you needed
Reiteration of expressing hope for the listener's needs being met
