Lyrics The Japanese Farewell Song - Sam Cooke

The time has come for us to say 'sayonara'
My heart will always be yours for eternity
I knew some time we'd have to say 'sayonara'
Please promise that you'll be returning someday to me

I'll remember our romance until the day that I die
I'll see your face in the moon and stars in the sky
So, hold me close before you say 'sayonara'
And promise that you'll always keep me near to your heart

I'll remember our romance until the day that I die
I'll see your face in the moon and stars in the sky
So, hold me close before you say 'sayonara'
And promise that you'll always keep me near to your heart

Always keep me near to your heart
