Steve Earle
Goodbye’s All We’ve Got Left
[Verse]
I could tell it when I woke up this morning
'Cause I can smell it when a heartache's coming
It's not that I'm in a hurry to lose you
I'd call you up, but there's nothing that I can do

[Chorus]
Talking won't do any good anyway
Because goodbye is all we've got left to say

[Verse]
I don't think it's going to get any better
So maybe you could just write me a letter
And I could open it up when I'm stronger
Another ten or twelve years, maybe longer

[Chorus]
I guess I just don't feel much like bad news today
Goodbye is all we've got left to say

[Verse]
Oh now, don't try to call me because I'm taking my phone out
And if it rings then I'll know what it's about
And don't you worry about me 'cause I'm all right
Maybe you'll run into me somewhere some night
[Chorus]
And if you do just keep going your way
Goodbye is all we've got left to say
Goodbye is all we've got left to say
