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 this last goodbye
Night is now falling
So ends this day
The road is now calling and I must away
Over hill and under tree
Through lands (1)__________ never light has shone
By silver (2)______________ that run down 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 (3)________ I forget
All who took that road with me
Night is now falling
So ends (4)________ 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 paths that (5)________ home
And though where the (6)________ then takes me
I (7)____________ tell
We came all this way
But now (8)__________ the day
To bid you farewell
I bid you all a (9)________ fond farewell
