Rose_Macshane...I would love to see the lyrics, that way I could see if I wanted to look into it further. It has a nice melody I'm assuming?

Nothing beats Gershwin's "Every time we say goodbye" - that's an A+ tear-jerker!

Might not fit your need, but "I'm Going Back" from Bells are Ringing is terrific.

"A Change in Me" sounds good.
Silence seemed the only way.
Now I understand it's cost.

Yes Elaborate Lives (reprise) got me all teary-eyed.
I wanted to get something that an "ex"-junkie like him would really appreciate and cherish....it's a brick of heroin shaped like a heart.

I love "You'll Never Walk Alone". I want to do that for my graduation. I think it would be perfect for what you need.

The lyrics may be a little too “one-on-one” to direct to your hometown crowd, but how about “Goodbye For Now,” Sondheim’s theme to “Reds?” That last line (“somehow each hello, makes it worth goodbye”) is heartbreakingly perfect.
Liz Callaway does a flawless version on the “Unsung Sondheim” album.

"We'll never say goodbye" by Art Garfunkel is in the most fabulous movie of all time: SING! (which was a horrible flop, but I still loves is.)
There's always room for pathos - and jazz hands.

I have been searching high and low for "Saying Goodbye" from The Muppets Take Manhattan- anyone know where I can get a copy? I want to work it into a project that I'm working on this summer...

6. "Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it, feel it and pass it on. Not for me, not for you, but for someone, somewhere, one day. Pass it on, boys. That's the game I want you to learn. Pass it on." -The History Boys

"Saying Goodbye" is seriously one of the biggest tear-jerker songs I have ever heard. I lost my dog of 13 years a couple years ago and right after heard that song for the first time. I bawled for at least an hour.
I might have a copy of it on my computer that I can send you if you still need it.

I have Saying Goodbye in a book "The Greatest Kid Songs Ever"..published by Hal Leonard. It's just the sheet music, not an arrangement, but I've used it for 5th grade end of the year type things...although with the particular group I had singing it, I couldn't wait until they left...LOL!
