Lyrics Hayes Carll

Hayes Carll

Bye Bye Baby

You laughed and called me lucky

For having you around

Then you stepped up to the bar and started swayin'

The crowd all sang, Ophelia

As we drank another round

Oh, bye, bye, bye, bye baby

Rain feel on the window

As we watched the sailors dance

You kissed my hand and said, you were beside me

I held onto the moment

When I thought there was a chance

Oh, bye, bye, bye, bye baby

I'd read you the letters

That had blown in from the west

And we'd whisper of the dreams we'd been savin'

You said, you'd have it all

Nothing more and nothing less

Oh, bye, bye, bye, bye baby

Now there's an emptiness standin' at the door

Tryin' to take me back to the way I was before

I used to feel alone here but it's not that way no more

Oh, bye, bye, bye, bye baby

Now the drunks have turned to strangers

And the stars are out of tune

As I think about the one who might've saved me

I know you're out there somewhere

Between the highway and the moon

Oh, bye, bye, bye, bye baby

Oh, bye, bye, bye, bye baby
