It should be time to say hello

In regards to my earlier post, "Time to say goodbye," I just want to say that I've loved that song but never knew really what they were saying, other than "time to say goodbye." That's because the song is sung in Italian. Anyway, it's such a haunting song, I always thought they were saying it was time to say goodbye because they were leaving each other- due to a war, or death, or some other tragic separation. When in reality, it's so much better! After reading the translated lyrics, they are saying it's time to say goodbye to everything they've ever known, because they're going to start new adventures together. Though you'd never know it by the title, this is actually a perfect wedding song. It's so fitting, because at a wedding, you're leaving your family and starting a new one. You have an entirely new adventure awaiting you, and while it is scary and bittersweet, it is time to say goodbye to what you used to know. But the best part is, in saying goodbye to someone or something, you'll always be saying hello to someone or something else. :)

Time to say goodbye

When I'm alone
I dream on the horizon
And words fail;
Yes, I know there is no light
In a room
Where the sun is not there
If you are not with me.
At the windows
Show everyone my heart
Which you set alight;
Enclose within me
The light you
Encountered on the street.

Time to say goodbye,
To countries I never
Saw and shared with you,
Now, yes, I shall experience them,
I'll go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer;
With you I shall experience them.

When you are far away
I dream on the horizon
And words fail,
And yes, I know
That you are with me;
You, my moon, are here with me,
My sun, you are here with me.
With me, with me, with me,

Time to say goodbye,
To countries I never
Saw and shared with you,
Now, yes, I shall experience them,
I'll go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer;
With you I shall re-experience them.
I'll go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,No, no, exist no longer;
With you I shall re-experience them.
I'll go with you, I with you.
