Lyrics The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Goodbye Eyes

So you found me again

Well, this ain't gonna be nothin' like before

Before tonight we couldn't be friends

Find a bar and talk old times until they closed the door.

Well, I'd even take you home

But I'd rather leave alone

I don't want to get caught in your goodbye eyes again.

You say you're sorry for leavin' me

Well, the pain is like the past, it's all just memories

I could fall again this evenin'

But to share the blue that I've been through won't let me be that easy.

So forgive me if I look away

I'll hear all you have to say

But I won't get caught in your goodbye eyes again.

Oh, tonight I'll sleep alone

But tomorrow I won't find you gone

I'll miss you but I missed you for so long.

I can't miss you anymore

So I've been hidin', tryin' not to look in

I don't want to get caught in your goodbye eyes again.

So, please, forgive me if I look away

I'll hear all you have to say

But I won't get caught in your goodbye eyes again.

Yes, tonight I'll sleep alone

But tomorrow I won't find you gone

I'll miss you but I missed you for so long.

I can't miss you anymore

So I've been away a lot, tryin' not to be where you have been

I did not want to get caught in your goodbye eyes again.

Oh, blue, blue ocean, please, don't swallow me

I don't want to get caught in your goodbye eyes again

I don't want to get caught in your goodbye eyes again.
