Goodbyes Are Sad
Bring back years
Bringing back the memories
Pour old years
Leathered in the plastic sleeves
Half-assed smiles
Posing for the photographs
My best friend there
Had to move out of town
Haven't spoken in years, hear he's in Arizon now
July drive away, goodbyes are sad
Well there ain't nothing new, ain't nothing quite bluer
Than a hand waving out the back window of a Buick
And the slow disappearing of a license plate
Tail lights heading for the interstate
Hey, tears roll with the bad
And everybody knows, goodbyes are sad
And everybody knows, goodbyes are sad
We fell in love, back side of 17
I sang songs, hoping I wouldnt be out of her Ivy League
She packed her bags
I closed her door, swore we'd make it work
I moved on, I still remember her July drive away
Goodbyes are sad
But there aint nothing new, aint nothing quite bluer
Than a ballpark boy, and a girl rearviewing
And the slow disappearing of a license plate
So long to the one who got away
Hey, tears roll with the bad
And everybody knows, goodbyes are sad
And everybody knows, goodbyes are sad
Everybody knows
(Music played)
Hey, tears roll with the bad
Everybody knows goodbyes are sad
(Ain't nothing new, aint nothing quite bluer)
Goodbyes are sad
(Ain't nothing new, aint nothing quite truer)
Goodbyes are sad
Goodbyes are sad
Bringing back the memories
Pour old years
Leathered in the plastic sleeves
Half-assed smiles
Posing for the photographs
My best friend there
Had to move out of town
Haven't spoken in years, hear he's in Arizon now
July drive away, goodbyes are sad
Well there ain't nothing new, ain't nothing quite bluer
Than a hand waving out the back window of a Buick
And the slow disappearing of a license plate
Tail lights heading for the interstate
Hey, tears roll with the bad
And everybody knows, goodbyes are sad
And everybody knows, goodbyes are sad
We fell in love, back side of 17
I sang songs, hoping I wouldnt be out of her Ivy League
She packed her bags
I closed her door, swore we'd make it work
I moved on, I still remember her July drive away
Goodbyes are sad
But there aint nothing new, aint nothing quite bluer
Than a ballpark boy, and a girl rearviewing
And the slow disappearing of a license plate
So long to the one who got away
Hey, tears roll with the bad
And everybody knows, goodbyes are sad
And everybody knows, goodbyes are sad
Everybody knows
(Music played)
Hey, tears roll with the bad
Everybody knows goodbyes are sad
(Ain't nothing new, aint nothing quite bluer)
Goodbyes are sad
(Ain't nothing new, aint nothing quite truer)
Goodbyes are sad
Goodbyes are sad
