Steve Earle
Goodbye
The first time I said goodbye, I thought I'd lost my heaven
And so I came running back to you
And I made a vow to myself, I'd never lose you again
The first time I said goodbye
The first time you broke my heart, I never saw it coming
I was as blind as a fool in love can be, yeah
And I made a vow to myself, you'd never hurt me again
The first time you broke my heart
Hey, wait a minute, baby, I'm always walking out that door, yeah
I stand the pain for a little while and then come running back for more
So this is it, baby, yet another sad farewell
I can't stand to live without you, baby, but living with you is a living hell
The last time I said goodbye, you told me go and good riddance
Knowing that I'd come back to you
But I made a vow to myself, I'd never go back again
The last time I said goodbye
The last time, the last time, the last time
The last time I said goodbye, goodbye
