Cole Porter's "Friendship" (embarassingly not sure what show it's from)

Perhaps not parting, but signifying of everlasting friendships.

Naturally, "My Best Friend" - The Wild Party (though not so much)

Oohh, and "My Friend" from The Life (Cy Coleman), that is exactly what you need, a fine tune and very sentimental.

Bosom Buddies is hilarious, but probably NOT the type of thing you're looking for.

"Together, Wherever We Go" from "Gypsy" also works (see Marcia and Mrs. Brady on "The Brady Bunch")

"Two Peas in a Pod" - Grey Gardens
"Dirty Rotten Number" - Dirty Rotten Scoundrels

Edit: They are not really parting songs though. Sorry...

not so much a parting song, but my favorite is "Our Time" from Merrily We Roll Along.

My Own Best Friend (Chicago)
How the Other Half Lives (Thoroughly Modern Millie) - not really parting/sentimental
Some Things Are Meant to Be (Little Women)

"What Would I Do Without You As A Friend" from the God-awful rewrite of MARTIN GUERRE. Typically, the melody is sweet but the lyrics are abysmal.

quite possibly my fave parting friends song ever - "And If We Never Meet Again" from Rags (you'll find it on the Emily/Alice 'Duets' cd as the last track - beautiful)

also
"My Friend" from The Life
"Old Friend" from I'm Getting My Act Together and Taking it on the Road (not so much goodbye but still beautiful)
"Borrowed Time" by David Friedman is gorgeous
"Every Goodbye Is Hello" from John and Jen
"Some Other Time" from On The Town (I personally hate that song though, lol)
"Fran and Janie" from Is There Life After High School?

"Til' Him" from The Producers

"I'm Nothing Without You" from City of Angels

"About a Quarter to Nine" from 42nd Street
