Merle Haggard
Goodbye Comes Hard for Me
[Verse 1]
I just remembered something
That I forgot to do
The bedroom door needs painting
And the walls are fading too
Angie's bike needs fixing
That all takes time, you see
And I know I'm not fooling you
Goodbye comes hard for me
[Verse 2]
So I'll just check for things once more
And look in every room
I must have dropped my comb somewhere
And a man must stay well-groomed
It seems I have the right to stay
But I know you don't agree
When it's goodbye to all our love
Goodbye comes hard for me
[Verse 3]
Goodbye comes hard for me
And I'd hoped you'd grab my sleeve
I thought that you might change your mind
And ask me not to leave
My face is wet, I've cried, I guess
I love you, now you're free
When it's goodbye to all our love
Goodbye comes hard for me
[Outro]
My face is wet, I've cried, I guess
I love you, now you're free
When it's goodbye to all our love
Goodbye comes hard for me
