Answer 3

That I was a good catch on the Nursejanet/Cyclist3000 when they were doing the same thing a few evenings ago. I can understand going back and voting your answer best on a open question, but what is the point of doing all that to gain a few points? (No pun intended, or was it???) Your are a great contributor, and Yahoo needs to start paying some attention to what is going on with the reporting and the violations. Now, in answer to your question, I always loved the Springsteen song "Bobby Jean," It has that perfect melancholy feel that a good-bye song should have.

Answer 4

I am assuming you want a nice goodbye CD as opposed to a f-off goodbye CD. Some ideas are:



Goodbye - Spice Girls (I know they are cheesy, but I do like that song)

So this is goodbye (or FM) - by the Junior Boys

Letting Go - Nitin Sawnhey

Answer 5

Grace Potters And The Nocturnals - Star

Semisonic - Closing Time

Sarah Mclachlan - I Will Remember You

Honor Society - Where Are You Now

Macy Grey - I Try

Tim McGraw - Please Remember Me

Liz Phair - Dotted Line

Shane Filan - You And Me

Kacey Musgraves - I Miss You

Phil Collins - You'll Be In My Heart

Gary Barlow - Let Me Go

Owl City - When Can I See You Again

David Cook - Come Back To Me

Answer 6

One great song is Goodbye My lover, and also Nobody Wanna see us togeather, and Sweet Escape. Good Luck with moving!

Answer 7

Goodbye- Mary Hopkin (written by Paul McCartney. Cute little song) Try to see if you can find the Paul McCartney demo version though. It's sweeter & less bouncy)

Answer 8

Freebird

Answer 9

Say Goodbye by Chris Brown.... Incomplete by Sisqo..... Its so hard to say goodbye by Boyz to Men... Goodbye by Jagged Edge

Answer 10

With or Without you by U2. It's a sad song, but the end guitar riff gives it a happy ending.

Dear Tanya, I'm sad you must leave your friend....here is a song by Sarah Brightman & Andrea Bocelli called "Time to Say Goodbye"......



Sarah:

Quando sono sola

sogno all'orizzonte

e mancan le parole,

si lo so che non c'è luce

in una stanza quando manca il sole,

se non ci sei tu con me, con me.

Su le finestre

mostra a tutti il mio cuore

che hai accesso,

chiudi dentro me

la luce che

hai incontrato per strada.



Time to say goodbye. -- Con te partirò.

Paesi che non ho mai

veduto e vissuto con te,

adesso sì li vivrò.

Con te partirò

su navi per mari

che, io lo so,

no, no, non esistono più,

it's time to say goodbye. -- con te io li vivrò.



Andrea:

Quando sei lontana

sogno all'orizzonte

e mancan le parole,

e io si lo so

che sei con me, con me,

tu mia luna tu sei qui con me,

mio sole tu sei qui con me,

con me, con me, con me.



Time to say goodbye. -- Con te partirò.

Paesi che non ho mai

veduto e vissuto con te,

adesso sì li vivrò.

Con te partirò

su navi per mari

che, io lo so,

no, no, non esistono più,



Both:

con te io li rivivrò.

Con te partirò

su navi per mari

che, io lo so,

no, no, non esistono più,

con te io li rivivrò.

Con te partirò



Io con te.

hmmm... well, there's chris brown's 'say goodbye'. here are the lyrics.



Look we gotta talk

Dang I know

I know it's just

It's just...

Some things I gotta get of my chest alright....

Yeahhhh...

Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, oh, whoa...

Listen..



Baby come here and sit down, let's talk

I got a lot to say so I guess I'll start by

Saying that I love you,

But you know, this thing ain't been

No walk in the park for us

I swear it'll only take a minute

You'll understand when I finish, yeah

And I don't wanna see you cry

But I don't wanna be the one to tell you a lie so



[Hook]

How do you let it go? When you,

You just don't know? What's on,

The other side of the door

When you're walking out, talk about it

Everything I tried to remember to say

Just went out my head

So I'ma do the best I can to get you to understand

'cause I know



[Chorus]

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But I gotta make the first move

'Cause if I don't you gonna start hating me

Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you

Girl it's not you, it's me

I kinda gotta figure out what I need (oh)

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But we know that we gotta go

Our separate ways

And I know it's hard but I gotta do it,

And it's killing me

Cause there's never a right time

Right time to say goodbye



Girl I know your heart is breaking

And a thousand times I

Found myself asking, "Why? Why?"

Why am I taking so long to say this?

But trust me, girl I never

Meant to crush your world

And I never

Thought I would see the day we grew apart

And I wanna know



[Hook]

How do you let it go? When you,

You just don't know? What's on,

The other side of the door

When you're walking out, talk about it

Girl I hope you understand

What I'm tryna say.

We just can't go on

Pretending that we get along

Girl how you not gonna see it?



[Chorus]

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But I gotta make the first move

'Cause if I don't you gonna start hating me

Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you

Girl it's not you it's me.

I kinda gotta figure out what I need (oh)

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But we know that we gotta go

Our separate ways

And I know it's hard but I gotta do it,

And it's killing me

Cause there's never a right time

Right time to say goodbye



Listen to your heart

Girl you know,

We should be apart, baby I

I just can't do it

I, I just can't do it

Listen to your heart

Girl you know,

We should be apart, baby I

I just can't do it

And sometimes it makes me wanna cry

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh [4x]

Do you hear me crying?

Oh, oh, oh [4x]



[Chorus]

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But I gotta make the first move

'Cause if I don't you gonna start hating me

Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you

Girl it's not you it's me.

I kinda gotta figure out what I need (oh)

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But we know that we gotta go

Our separate ways

And I know it's hard but I gotta do it,

And it's killing me

Cause there's never a right time

Right time to say goodbye



[Chorus]

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But I gotta make the first move

'Cause if I don't you gonna start hating me

Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you

Girl it's not you it's me.

I kinda gotta figure out what I need (oh)

There's never a right time to say goodbye

But we know that we gotta go

Our separate ways

And I know it's hard but I gotta do it,

And it's killing me

Cause there's never a right time

Right time to say goodbye





this song is more for a break-up though. also, jagged edge's "goodbye". here are the lyrics



Sometimes...

What may be the best thing for you to do

Sometimes it the hardest thing for you to do

And thats real

Cause I know that I love you

I know how I feel about you

But I also know that don't make everything alright

And for that reason

I gotta say goodbye



Tell me have you ever been in a

Situation where the best thing you could do

Is the hardest thing you've ever done

But you try to do whats right

And I know that deep down inside

That I really wanna be there by your side

But I can't stand to see you cry

Not when its because of me



And its over, I'll never love another

I'm always thinking of her, I'm doing this because of her



Don't wanna say goodbye

I don't wanna let her see me cry

Looking out the window and wondering why

Did we have to say all those things that we said last night

Baby I don't wanna say goodbye

So I'm just standing here wondering why

Just don't like to see when you cry

So I'ma say goodbye



If you think I cause I packed your stuff

That inside I ain't really really cracking up

Cause you're wrong I just hide it good

Cause I know thats what you need

And there's more to life than loving yourself

You gotta learn to love somebody else

And thats why I do the things that I do



And its over, I'll never love another

I'm always thinking of her, I'm doing this because of her



Don't wanna say goodbye

I don't wanna let her see me cry

Looking out the window and wondering why

Did we have to say all those things that we said last night

Baby I don't wanna say goodbye

So I'm standing here wondering why

Just don't wanna see when you cry

So I'ma say goodbye



There's no one in this world that can ever take your place

All the love that we share, it can never be erased

And I know that, that it hurts so bad

And its so that, that you're the best I've had



There's no one in this world that can ever take your place

All the love that we share, it can never be erased

And I know that, that it hurts so bad

And its so that, that you're the best I've had



There's no one in this world that can ever take your place

All the love that we share, it can never be erased

And I know that, that it hurts so bad

And it's so that, that you're the best I've had



There's no one in this world that can ever take your place

All the love that we share, it can never be erased

And I know that, that it hurts so bad

And it's so that, that you're the best I've had
