Analysis of Goodbye and it was worth risking

Cynthia novotny 1984 (Wilmington de)



If something ever happens
To you my good friend
I would jump in the way
To see you have another day

I would swim the seven seas
To make sure that you live
But if there is ever a day
That something should happen

I just hope that you never get killed
Just please hope you know I’ll be there
I’ll be your shield and protect you
I’ll always be there to save you

Your the type of person
That I truly care for the most
I feel that you are so honest
I feel that you are truly a friend
