We were boyhood pals The best of friends And time was on our side We thought the world was in our hands We were young and full of life But in the twinkling of a moment Before a chance to say “so long” You were taken from our world And now you're gone
CHORUS But I'll see you when I get home In the sweet bye and bye We'll walk along the streets of Gold With angels by our side Time will have no meaning there In a land of no goodbye's Oh it's Good to know I'll see you when I get home
Oh what a celebration I hope You all will come The Father now is waiting and Soon He'll call us home
