Julie Raye in her pearl white wedding gown Has found her wigns and its time to fly It's all her dad can do to keep from breakin down It's never easy to say goodbye Chourus It aint easy, to ever say goodbye It aint easy lettin go of the ones you love But belive me we'll meet again by and by If not here somewhere up above. Ive had friends that ive lost along the way They've been called on down the line Though their time was short I still think bout them everyday It aint easy to say good bye Chourus It aint easy, to ever say goodbye It aint easy lettin go of the ones you love But belive me we'll meet again by and by If not here somewhere up above. The time has come to go our seperate ways And its alright if you wanna cry Though i know we'll meet again someday Its never easy to say good bye Chourus It aint easy, to ever say goodbye It aint easy lettin go of the ones you love But believe me we'll meet again by and by If not here, somewhere up above If not here somewhere up above
