10000 Maniacs – From The Time We Say Goodbye lyrics
By the time you say goodbye
By the time you say cheerio
We'll take a handshake through
On your journey as you go
Keep a pray'are within your heart
That the time will surely fly
To the day when we shall meet again
By the time you say goodbye

Hmmm.....

Yes listeners, we have been coming to you
Live on a crystal ballroom high above the Hotel Jamestown
In picturesque western new york
As your program draws to a close
It gives me profound pleasure to say cheerio
To the strains of Miss Natalie Merchant and her choir
And so now it only remains for me to say... Goodnight

By the time you say goodbye
By the time you say cheerio
We'll take a handshake through
On your journey as you go
Keep a pray'are within your heart
That the time will surely fly
To the day when we shall meet again
By the time you say goodbye

    "From the Time We Say Goodbye" was a song sung to British troops by Vera Lynn as they were leaving to fight the Germans during WW 11. There was a 78rpm record of the song issued by a company that had a blue label on the record. That is all I remember, but I have tried to find that recording unsuccessfully for many years.
