The Last Goodbye by Billy Boyd

I saw the light fade from the sky
On the wind, I heard a sigh
As the snowflakes cover my fallen brothers
I will say (1)________ last goodbye
Night is now falling
So ends this day
The road is now (2)______________ and I (3)________ away
Over hill and (4)__________ tree
Through lands (5)__________ (6)__________ light has shone
By silver streams that run (7)________ to the Sea
Under cloud, beneath the stars
Over snow and winter's morn
I turn at last to paths that lead home
And though where the road then takes me
I cannot tell
We came all this way
But now comes the day
To bid you farewell
Many places I have been
Many sorrows I have seen
But I don't regret
Nor will I forget
All who took that road with me
Night is now falling
So ends this day
The road is now calling
And I must away
Over hill and under tree
Through lands where never light has shone
By silver streams that run down to the Sea
To these memories, I will hold
With your blessing, I will go
To turn at last to (8)__________ that lead home
And though where the road then takes me
I cannot tell
We (9)________ all this way
But now comes the day
To bid you farewell
I bid you all a very fond farewell
