What are some well known farewell songs?

Asked by MysticAussie (39points) October 17th, 2012

Some farewell songs that aren’t talking about breaking up, just a person leaving. Preferably ones that are well known or recently released.
Thanks :)

Pete Seeger’s “So Long, It’s Been Good to Know Ya”
“Good Night, Irene” could be “Good Bye, ____” (I’ll see you in my dreams”)

Adios, Au Revoir, Auf Wiedersehn

Goodnight, goodnight, until we meet again
Adios, Au Revoir, Auf Wiedersehn ‘til then
And though it’s always sweet sorrow to part
You know you’ll always remain in my heart
Goodnight, sleep tight, and pleasant dreams to you
Here’s a wish and a prayer that every dream comes true
And now ‘til we meet again
Adios, Au Revoir, Auf Wiedersehn…. Good Night!
-lyrics by Jack Elliott, music by George Cates
