I have recently falled in love with "Some Things Are Meant to Be" from Little Women. I also love "A Little Fall of Rain" from Les Mis and of course "For Good". And I really think the Goodbye songs from Spelling Bee are my favorite to listen to!!

There's always "Goodbye", that ends The Producers.

OMG, yes! That song is awesome.

I don't know if this is really a "Good-bye Song" (I've never seen this show) but I've always considered it as one:

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE - Carousel.

the goodbyes from spelling bee
"we'll meet tomorrow" and the reprise of godspeed titanic from Titanic
technically a movie, but "saying goodbye" from the muppets take manhattan

"Goodbye, Love" from Rent has never failed to bring me to tears. I also love "I Could Never Rescue You" from The Last 5 Years and "For Good" from Wicked.

What about " And I am telling you I'm not going" from DREAMGIRLS? Sort of anti-goodbye?

"Hard to say goodbye" is also a favourite!

"Never met a man I didn't like" - WILL ROGERS FOLLIES is a goodbye moment and was VERY moving on stage!

It's only the second song in the show, but it is a great goodbye song. "Think How It's Gonna Be" from Applause.

The "v" at the end of those really adds a nice tacky touch.

TODD:
Mrs. Lovett,
You're a bloody wonder,
Eminently practical and yet
Appropriate as always.
As you've said repeatedly,
There's little point in dwelling on the past.
TODD:

MRS. LOVETT:
Do you mean it?
Everything I did I swear
I thought
Was only for the best,
Believe me!
Can we still be
Married?

TODD:
No, come here, my love ..
Not a thing to fear,
My love . . .
What's dead
Is dead.

(TODD puts his arm around her waist; she starts to relax in her babbling, and they sway to the waltz, her arms around his neck)

TODD:
The history of the world, my pet —

MRS. LOVETT:
Oh, Mr. Todd,
Ooh, Mr. Todd,
Leave it to me .. .

TODD:
Is learn forgiveness and try to forget.

MRS. LOVETT:
By the sea, Mr. Todd,
We'll be comfy-cozy,
By the sea, Mr. Todd,
Where there's no one nosy ...

(He waltzes her closer to the oven)

TODD:
And life is for the alive, my dear,
So let's keep living it — !

BOTH:
Just keep living it,
Really living it — !

(He flings her into the oven. She screams. He slams the doors behind her. Black smoke belches forth. The music booms like an earthquake. TODD, gasping, sinks to his knees by the oven doors. Then he rises, moves back to the BEGGAR WOMAN and kneels, cradling her head in his arms)
