Close your eyes, 
And just hear me sing, 
One last long goodbye, 
One last song before you spread your wings.

There's so much left to say, 
And before this moment slips away

What a wonderful life, 
For as long as you've been at my side, 
And I want you to know, 
I loved you so

Then the cold night calls, 
And the tears fall like rain, 
It's so hard letting go, 
Of the one thing I'll never replace

And soon you will be gone, 
But these words, they will live on

What a wonderful life, 
For as long as you've been at my side, 
And I want you to know, 
I'll miss you so, 
And though our [bad word] to an end, 
No, I'll never love like this again, 
What a wonderful life my friend

And all that I am, 
You let me be, 
I will remember you, 
For all that you've done, 
And given to me

Love will remain, 
This I can see, 
Now and forever more
Because of you, 
Now I believe
I believe

What a wonderful life, 
For as long as you've been at my side, 
And I want you to know, 
I loved you so

What a wonderful life, 
For as long as you've been at my side, 
And I want you to know, 
I'll miss you so, 
And though our [bad word] to an end, 
No, I'll never love like this again, 
What a wonderful life
wonderful life
What a wonderful life
What a wonderful life

And with one last embrace
As the tears fall like rain you're gone
And with one last goodbye, 
As you fade out tonight, you're gone.
