'Til We Meet Again
Rob Paynter wrote this before leaving Cape Town. It was sung to his students at the Valedictory service. Guitar, harmonica and vocals by Rob. It is on the album On The Pier.
Goodbye my friends, goodbye to you
Stay young and until we meet again
I'll remember all the good things about you.
Like the times that we walked in the mountains together
Like the times that we laughed and we joked
Like the times that we lay around the fire forever
And revealed our hearts to each other as we spoke.
Goodbye my friends ...
Like the smile in your eyes, the loveliness of youth
From a child to a woman, the joy the tears
And the things we taught each other in our search for truth
As we journeyed the same way these last few years.
Goodbye my friends ....
Never give up hoping, never stop trying
When you're beaten to the ground stand up again
Just live an honest life, never stop loving
Do unto others and try find the one who makes the rain.
Goodbye my friends ....
