Lyrics
Here at the crossroads we’ve come at last
Our dream is ended, our love is past
A farewell kiss, dear, a farewell sigh
I’ll always love you tho’ it’s “goodbye”
Chorus:
Farewell to arms, to arms that caressed me
Goodbye to love that once was mine
Farewell to lips that tenderly kissed me
Goodbye to dreams that were divine
No matter where I go, my heart will be with you
No matter where you are, I’ll always worship you
And so farewell to arms that caressed me
Farewell to arms, farewell to love
