Six or seven hours ago
|
Seemed the only thing to do
|
Was head out on the open road
|
And find anywhere else I wouldn¡¯t find you
|
Through the window of the room
|
Neon flashes ¡°vacancy¡±
|
Brighter than the quarter moon
|
And colder inside than I thought it would be
|
With all these miles behind me
|
All those reasons why
|
Fade into my memory
|
This side of goodbye
|
This side of goodbye
|
Sittin¡¯ on a single bed
|
Silent television glows
|
I¡¯m looking back and up ahead
|
At what it all was and where it all goes
|
Oh, why¡¯d we have to drift apart
|
A little further every year
|
And why¡¯d we take a smile to heart
|
Not nearly as deep as any one tear
|
With all these miles behind me
|
All those reasons why why why
|
Fade into my memory
|
This side of goodbye
|
This side of goodbye
|
Reaching out was hard somehow for so long
|
But easy now if you were here or just picked up the phone
|
With all these miles behind me
|
All those reasons why
|
Fade into my memory
|
This side of goodbye
|
This side of goodbye
|
