(My favorite song from "Muppets Take Manhattan"--the very sad separation of the Muppet gang after the plans in NYC don't go as well as they hoped.)
(At a train station)
Piggy: Saying goodbye, going away
Seems like goodbye's such a hard thing to say
Kermit: Touching our hands, wondering why
Both: It's time for saying goodbye.
(On a country road with Scooter on bicycle)
Scooter: Saying goodbye, why is it sad?
Makes us remember the good times we've had
Much more to say, foolish to try
It's time for saying goodbye.
(In the back of a truck with Camilla)
Gonzo:
Don't want to leave, but we both know
Sometimes its better to go
(On a Greyhound bus)
Rowlf:
Somehow I know, we'll meet again
Not sure quite where and I don't know just when
(On the roadside, hitchhiking)
Floyd: You're in my heart, so until then
Electric Mayhem: It's time for saying goodbye.
(In a freight train car)
Fozzie:
Somehow I know, we'll meet again
Not sure quite where and I don't know just when
You're in my heart so until then
Wanna smile
Wanna cry
Saying goodbye
All except Kermit & Fozzie:
La la la la, la la la la
It's time for saying goodbye
La la la la, la la la la
La la la la-la la la.
