Just to say goodbye, Bobby Jean Well, I came to your house the other day Your mother said you went away She said there was nothing that I could have done There was nothing nobody could say Me and you, we've known each other ever since we were sixteen I

Won't do you no good It won't do you no good Can't fight the temptation When you get the vibration And I said kiss your baby goodbye Come on, love, it's alright! Heaven knows they wanna break you apart, yeah Kiss your baby goodbye

Sometimes goodbye is a second chance Tell my mother, tell my father I have done the best I can To make them realize This is my life I hope they understand I'm not angry, I'm just saying She waved, said, "Why are you always running in place"

I've come to expect it from you But that's what I get How could you do what you've gone and done to me I wouldn't treat a dog the way you treated me Nervous wreck I can't believe you said goodbye Sit and smoke Cry and joke

She said goodbye too many times before This love has taken its toll on me And her heart is breaking in front of me Her heart is breaking in front of me I have no choice 'cause I won't say goodbye anymore I was so high, I did not recognize The fire

In Marina Del Rey We said goodbye In marina del rey "I had a good time" Was the last thing I heard her say As I walked away And on this plane back to Tennessee My mind comes across her memory

I should be loving you Don’t say goodnight We just watched it burn Know we could’ve kept going by I tried to find the truth And I ain’t there with you I never listen, I never listen All the things you said I’ll never hear again

When you said you needed time And prayed you’d stay And I told myself that it’d be fine I wish I could have just said somethin’, oh I heard goodbye I watched you fade away But I turned my head and closed my eyes I could tell by the way you kissed my lips

I got a feelin' called the blues, oh Lord Since my baby said goodbye Lord I don't know what I'll do All I do is sit and sigh, oh Lord That last long day she said goodbye She'll do me, she'll do you She's got that kind of lovin' Lord I love to hear her

We got it right And when we were in it Yeah, we were in it Long before we said goodbye Just for a minute Yeah, we got the looks We got the lights We got the days We got the nights
