This Is Not Goodbye Lyrics

Mama and her little guy

Barefoot on the driveway in the morning light

His Daddy says "I'll see ya, son"

"We'll be together when summer comes"

Chorus

This is not goodbye

I'll be back in a little while

Lift up your head, look me in the eye

It's ok if you need to cry

But this is not goodbye

It's hard to start a brand new life

He misses Daddy and she's no one's wife

First day of school, she drives him there

He clings to Mama 'cause he's just so scared

And she says

Repeat Chorus

Days turn to years, and he's now eighteen

Wants to see the world, wants to spread his wings

She loves him, so she lets him go

Before he boards that plane, he lets her know mama

Repeat Chorus

Mama's fading and it won't be long now

He sits beside her, his head is down

She says "I'm proud of you, you're a good man"

"I'll always love you so take my hand and remember

This is not goodbye"
