Kiss Goodbye

As I slide the key in the ignition of this ol' truck and fire it up

I'm struck hard by the heaviness of this situation

my eyes are fixed on the small silver half heart keychain you gave me dangling in the dashboard light

I read the word "forever" over and over again, I wanna cry

I turn off my radio as I turn off your county road

to pick you up just like I've done at least a thousand times

the gravel underneath these tires,

half mile stretch of ol barbed wire,

drops of rain fallin from the sky seem to know my pain,

Know that I'm about to,

Reach out to hold your hand in mine, feel your love baby one more time,

press against your lips and hold you tight, I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye

I could put it off for another day act like everything's gonna be okay

It's gonna break my heart to see you cry

I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye

See it's not that what I got to do is more important than you,

It's just what I gotta do

and I know you don't understand, hell I don't understand myself

As I pull up to your house, I feel my head spinnin' around just thinkin' about how everything is about to change

every step I take towards your door I'm a little less certain than the step before

oh but I know, I know, I know what I gotta do

I got to reach out and hold your hand in mine, feel your love baby one more time,

press against your lips and hold you tight, I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye

I could put it off for another day, act like everything's gonna be okay

It's gonna break my heart to see you cry

I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye

Reach out and hold your hand in mine, feel your love baby one more time

press against your lips and hold you tight

yeah I could put it off for another day and act like everything's gonna be okay

It's gonna break my heart to see you cry

I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye

goodbye
