TV version

Will you miss me when I'm gone?
Will you remember all the good times we've had?
The hardest thing about leaving
Is saying good-bye.

We'll always be the greatest of friends.
I'll miss you more than I can say.
And when I'm blue, I'll just dream about you.
I'll be only a memory away.

We'll always be the greatest of friends.
I'll miss you more than I can say.
And when I'm blue, I'll just dream about you.
I'll be only a memory away.

You're something special to me.
Friendship is something that money can't buy.
And if you need me,
You know that I'll be there for you.

We'll always be the greatest of friends.
I'll miss you more than I can say.
And if you need me, I'll be there for you.
I'll be only a memory away.

We'll always be the greatest of friends.
I'll miss you more than I can say.
And if you need me, I'll be there for you.
I'll be only a memory away!


CD version

I hear the voice of my destiny call,
And I know I must go find my way.
The hardest part will be leaving you all,
And I'll miss you much more than words can say.

I'll be only a memory away.
If you need me, you can call me any time of day,
And I'll be there, it's okay.
Only a memory away.

My intuition says something is wrong.
My friends said they'd come and say good-bye,
And I can't go until I know what's going on.
I fear there is danger somewhere near by.

I'll be only a memory away.
If you need me, you can call me any time of day,
And I'll be there, it's okay. (I'll be there... I'll be there...)
Only a memory away.

We've been together through good times and bad.
You've always been there for me.
I'll always treasure the best friends I have
Eternally.

Only a memory away.
If you need me, you can call me any time of day,
And I'll be there, it's okay. (I'll be there... I'll be there...)
I'm only a memory away.

Only a memory away.
If you need me, you can call me any time of day,
And I'll be there, it's okay. (I'll be there... I'll be there...)
Only a memory away.

Only a memory away.
Only a memory away!
