[00:04.510] | |
[00:14.460] | As her car pulls out the driveway |
[00:19.960] | And she don’t wave goodbye |
[00:24.780] | Her last words echo in my mind |
[00:30.270] | Listen honey, i gotta get away |
[00:35.540] | I’m standing here watching her tail lights |
[00:41.590] | As if they’re some kind of sign |
[00:46.940] | Fading into a memory |
[00:52.540] | I just got tired of trying |
[00:57.110] | So long, i hate to see you go |
[01:01.680] | So i save my tears for later on down the road |
[01:08.060] | How come i keep i holding on |
[01:12.750] | Knowing you won’t be coming home |
[01:26.820] | Two days later i get a letter |
[01:32.140] | A picture of a room in some hotel |
[01:38.000] | Sitting framed up on the table, |
[01:43.680] | A picture i know so well |
[01:48.330] | You’ve painted yourself in to a corner |
[01:53.870] | Now you’re trying to paint something new |
[01:59.610] | And your lipstick on the letter |
[02:05.070] | Is a goodbye kiss from you |
[02:09.840] | So long, i hate to see you go |
[02:14.580] | but i save my tears for later on down the road |
[02:20.800] | How come i keep i holding on |
[02:25.600] | Knowing you won’t be coming home |
[02:35.010] | I still set the table |
[02:39.950] | Still set it for you and me |
[02:45.810] | It’s become a habit |
[02:50.370] | My own personal make believe |
[02:55.120] | |
[03:41.550] | So long, i hate to see you go |
[03:46.440] | but i save my tears for later on down the road |
[03:52.540] | How come i kee? i holding on |
[03:57.190] | Knowing you won’t be coming home |
[04:03.310] | So long, i hate to see you go |
[04:07.760] | but i save my tears for later on down the road |
[04:14.010] | How come i keep i holding on |
