Oh the winds of change are blowin’
Sometimes it seems that all good things must come to an end…
We all knew this day was coming…
But ya know it’s just not easy to say goodbye to a friend…
This place will never be the same without you in it…
No one to tell us like it is and like it isn’t…
chorus
The way you do ~ An’ seasons change
The years go by ~ An’ lives we share
And now the time has come ~ To say goodbye… My friend…
What will we do ~ Without you?
It’s been so good ~ But now the time has come
To say goodbye… Goodbye, My friend…
--
Oh you run a real tight ship ~ You’re a mover and a shaker
And that you care… Shows right on thru…
You are loved and respected ~ With hearts of admiration
We want you to know… We don’t want you to go…
This place will never be the same without you in it…
No one to tell us like it is and like it isn’t…
chorus
The way you do ~ An’ seasons change
The years go by ~ An’ lives we share
And now the time has come ~ To say goodbye… My friend…
What will we do ~ Without you?
It’s been so good ~ But now the time has come
To say goodbye… Goodbye, My friend…

bridge
Oh we know you’re really not so far away…
But we’ll be missin’ you ~ No one can replace…
chorus
But there you ~ An’ seasons change
The years go by ~ An’ lives we share
And now the time has come ~ To say goodbye… My friend…
What will we do ~ Without you?
It’s been so good ~ But now the time has come
We don’t want to say goodbye My friend…
WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT THIS SONG?
I wanted to let you know that the DVD and the song
"Goodbye My Friend" was a great hit at the school retirement
party. I also want to thank you for your generosity in allowing
me to use the song in a tribute to the three retiring teachers.
Dave Cupp
Dear Susie, Thank you so much for sending me your song.
I used it as the final song in an mpeg movie I created out of
pictures and video clips from our retiring teacher's 35 year
career. Everyone enjoyed the clips, songs, and the pictures
during the first part of the production and were smiling and
chatting with each other. Once your song began, the room grew
silent and everyone was completely attentive to the production.
Then the tears began to flow! It was the perfect way to help us
summarize the amazing career of a truely great teacher.
Your song was a beautiful way to end the production.
Thank you so much for generously sharing your work with us.
Many of the people at the retirement wanted to know about you
and your work so I shared your web site with them. I was excited
to share that you create Christian music in order to help people
come to know and love Christ in a special way. Thank you for
that "tool" as another way to reach people for Jesus. Thank You.

I just wanted to let you know that we played "Goodbye my Friend" at the retirement party for Henry T. Harden, M.D. last evening and it was SOOOO moving! He was very moved, everyone in the audience (about 100 people) were very moved. I did make copies of the DVD/CD for about 8 people and many more people asked about the song and where it came from etc. Thank you so very much for going the extra mile to rerecord in our timeframe. Thanks again and many blessings on this beautiful song!
Carla Johnson
Just wanted to let you know on how the retirement went. The event was a
great success and your song was perfect for the party. Everyone loved the
song and the lyrics just fit perfectly. Thank you again for providing us
with the song!

WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT THIS SONG?
Thank you very much for allowing me to use your song at my friend's party.
Everyone loved the song! It was a big hit! The song was wonderful, it was like it was written for her!
Thanks again,
Pat Rose
It's a great song and all the staff thought the words
were perfect for our friend, Julie. All the lower elementary
teachers were crying at how beautiful the song is and how
perfect the words were at Julie's retirement party and they
thought I sang it so pretty too. I have given out your website
so that others can benefit from your beautiful music.

Hi Susie ~ Well, we could never thank you enough for
responding so quickly so we could use your song for our friend.
It was so powerful, and so perfect! Shelly copied enough lyric
sheets so we "serenaded" Bonnie with the song, through lots of
tears of course! She thought we had the lyrics written just for
her!!! That is how perfect , and apparently universal, this song
is! Bonnie's 2 daughters surprised her by coming to the party,
and they couldn't believe how wonderful your song is for their
Mom. Funny thing, I did not know Bonnie's husband teases her
about being the "Queen" of everything -- so your lyrics were
certainly on target there too! All told, it was a gift beyond
measure, thanks to you (Thanks to God) for writing, recording
and mostly ~ thanks for sharing this song. It touches so many
hearts. Our hearts will always be grateful for your kindness and
talent! Thanks, and peace to you always ~ Marie Kinietz and
the faculty and family at St. Mary School in Marion, OH.
