Céline Dion – Goodbye's lyrics
Mamma
You gave life to me
Turned a baby into a lady

And mamma
All you had to offer
Was the promise of a lifetime of love

Now I know
There is no other
Love like a mother's love for her child

And I know
A love so complete
Someday must leave
Must say goodbye

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

Mamma
You gave love to me
Turned a young one into a woman

And mamma
All I ever needed
Was a guarantee of you loving me

'Cause I know
There is no other
Love like a mother's love for her child

And it hurts so
That something so strong
Someday will be gone, must say goodbye

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

But the love you give will always live
You'll always be there every time I fall
You offered me the greatest love of all
You take my weakness and you make me strong
And I will always love you 'till forever comes

And when you need me
I'll be there for you always
I'll be there your whole life through
I'll be there this I promise you, mamma

I'll be your beacon through the darkest nights
I'll be the wings that guide your broken flight
I'll be your shelter through the raging storm
And I will love you 'till forever comes

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

'Till we meet again...
Until then...
Goodbye

    Yes, when your mom gives birth to you she bought you up and from a baby you turns into a lady or man. An you must never abandon your mom. Goodbye is the saddest word because if someone died who is special to you they are saying goodbye and that will be the last time you will hold them near and then you will start to cry. And it will be breaking your heart to say back goodbye to the person. That song is a good song to listen. I listen to it in my spare time so what about you? Celine Dion is the top singer for me. She has a soft voice and a melodious voice too. My mom and grandmother enjoys all of her song. And I will always love me mom and I know she loved me since the day I was in her womb. I love my mom sincerely. Thank you!. My name is Stephanie Singh. I am 10 years old. I am from Guyana. I was born on a wonder planet Virgo on he 16th of September 2004. I am a loving, brilliant and intelligent child. I always love my mom. Thank You! Have a nice day.
