Title: If This Is Goodbye
Post by: stormbreaker on September 11, 2013, 09:00:58 PM
Is a beautiful song, ofcourse about the last calls of the hijacked planes and ofcourse the twin towers during 9/11.

The lyric:

My famous last words
Are laying around in tatters
Sounding absurd whatever I try
But I love you and that's all that really matters

If this is good bye
If this is good bye

Your bright shining sun
Would light up the way before me
You were the one made me feel I could fly
And I love you whatever is waiting for me

If this is good bye
If this is good bye

Who knows how long we've got
Or what were made out of
Who knows if there's a plan or not
There is our love, I know there is our love

My famous last words could never tell the story
Spinning unheard in the dark of the sky
But I love you and this is our glory

If this is good bye
If this is good bye
If this is good bye
If this is good bye
