Goodnight, but not goodbye
Goodnight, but not goodbye
For sleep will steal our cares away
And soon there'll dawn a brighter day
When we shall meet once more
Beneath a sunny sky
So dry your tears, have no more fears
Goodnight, but not goodbye
Parting time means sorrow
For the world seems wrong
But somehow I know, dear
It won't be for long
(Instrumental Break)
When we shall meet once more
Beneath a sunny sky
So, while we kiss, I'll whisper this
Goodnight, but not goodbye
