Not every parting need be sad and tearful... this is a song about parting serenely and embracing the future, whatever it may bring. :) This song is dedicated to two friends I will sorely miss during the next weeks and months... - Johanna and Ellen

Artist picture
Three young women from the city of Mainz, playing and singing just for the fun of it... The band name may lead to the impression that our topics are only taken from Tolkien's legacy, but we've got our own lyrics, too - and not only (but also) about fantastic themes... We hope that you'll find more songs on the music page soon. :)

Lyrics
Farewell Greeting This farewell is not a sad one High above the skies are bright We may leave for different paths now But I know that deep inside None of us is really leaving No one will be truly gone Just as long as we remember Friendship will live on and on. Do not let our parting grieve you Do not let your heart be sad Isn’t rather celebrating Fitting for the times we had? Let’s remember every moment Forever in our hearts to keep Laugh because life let us have it Treasure it, but don’t you weep. Such is life, that new beginnings Always go with parting For every door you close behind you There’s a new one opening. Do not let your worries daunt you Embrace the changes, don’t be sad Enjoy the past, it’s there to guide you But live the present; look ahead! This Good-bye is not a sad one I know we will meet again One fine day when our steps By chance meet each other’s road and then Let’s sit down and tell each other All that we have seen and done There’ll be much to share, thus we won’t worry Over all that’s been and gone Now let’s join hands, but not to chain us, Let’s embrace, then let us part With a smile; and know however far we may be We’ll live in each other’s heart. Life goes on, and ever-present Will my friendship be for you Though seemingly on different paths now - We’ll walk together. I know we do.
