The world will come to an end,
As I say goodbye to my friend.
But I know I’ll pull through this pain,
Because I know, we’ll meet again.
Goodbye.

When we’re least expecting it,
One day in some far off place,
I will recognize your face,
I won’t say goodbye my friend,
For you and I will meet again.
Somehow
I know we’ll meet again.
Not sure quite where and
I don’t know just when.
You’re in my heart, so until then
It’s time for saying goodbye.

Goodbyes are not the end.
They simply mean “I`ll miss you”
Until we meet again!
Excuse me, then!
you know my heart;
But dearest friends,
alas! must part.
By John Gay

and we’ve shared our fears.
We’ve shared so many things throughout the years.
And when the times were hard
we were by each other’s side.
You were there to make me laugh when I cried.

Memories last forever,
never do they die.
Friends stay together,
never say goodbye.

But our friendship is deep rooted in my heart

While you pursue another
But we will meet soon,
Let’s promise each other.

Beautiful Quotes about Moving Away for Friends
We’ve already said a lot about all of the hardships of saying goodbye to friends who are moving away. But look on the bright side: if there were no farewells, friends wouldn’t cherish much the precious moments when they can share each other’s company. So, yes, you say ‘goodbye’ today, but you’ll say ‘hello’ tomorrow, or in a year, or in twenty years from now. Our point is, friendship doesn’t know words like ‘time’ and ‘distance’.
The time soon comes for parting,
And our time is at an end.

And we have no time at all to spend.
You had your shining moments,
Upon this life’s darkened stage,
And in my book of wonderments
You’ll never be just another page..
