Goodbye (Addio)

GOOD BYE!
(Francesco Paolo Tosti / G.J. Whyte-Melville - 1908)

Enrico Caruso - 1911
John McCormack - 1914

Also recorded by: Richard Crooks

Falling leaf and fading tree,
Lines of white in a sullen sea,
Shadows rising on you and me;
Shadows rising on you and me;
The swallows are making them ready to fly,
Wheeling out on a windy sky, Good-bye,
Summer! Good-bye, Good-bye, Summer Good-bye!

Hush! A voice from the faraway!
Listen and learn, it seems to say,
All tomorrows shall be as today.
All tomorrows shall be as today.
The chords is frayed the cruse is dry,
The link must break, and the lamp must die.
Good-bye, to Hope! Good-bye, Good-bye!
Good-bye, to Hope! Good-bye, Good-bye!

What are we waiting for? Oh! My heart!
Kiss me straight on the brows!
And part! Again! Again! My heart!
What are we waiting for, you and I?
A pleading look, a stifled cry,
Good-bye, forever! Good-bye, forever!
Good-bye, Good-bye, Good-bye!
