Goodbye Ami
Hello, Ami
It’s time to set you free
The notes from you
Are the notes from me
The sunny days
And the somersaults
The time has come
It’s no one’s fault
Goodbye, Ami
I’ll miss the time with you
Perhaps some day
You’ll find something new to do
Another soul who needs a friend
Another one who you’ll extend a hand to
Someone who will love you
Goodbye Ami
I’ll see you in my dreams
My oldest friend
Who helps my self esteem
Imaginary guardian of my childhood
With you by my side
Life’s been good
Goodbye, Ami
I’ll miss the time with you
Perhaps some day
You’ll find something new to do
Another soul who needs a friend
Another one who you’ll extend a hand to
Someone who love you
Like I do
It’ll be so quiet here
I love you, Ami
I’ll keep you alive somehow
I wish that I could hug you right now
Goodbye, Ami
I’ll miss the time with you
Perhaps someday
You’ll find something new to do
Another soul who needs a friend
Another one who you’ll extend a hand to
Someone who will love you
I’ll miss the time with you
I’ll miss the time with you
I’ll miss the time with you
I’ll miss the time with you

Ami is one of my dad's old imaginary friends.
