Doomed from the start We met with a goodbye kiss I broke my wrist It all kicked off I had no choice You said that you didn't mind 'Cause love's hard to find La-la-la-la Maybe the days we had are gone Living in silence for too long Open your eyes and what do you see No more laughs No more photographs Turning slowly Looking back, see No words can save this You're broken and I'm pissed Run along like I'm supposed to Be the man I ought to Rock and roll sent us insane I hope someday that we will meet again Running wild Giving it everyone Now that's all done Cause we burnt out, that's what you do When you have everything It can't be true La-la-la-la Maybe the days we had are gone Living in silence for too long Open you're eyes and what do you see The last stand Let go of my hand Turning slowly Looking back, see No words can save this You're broken and I'm pissed Run along like I'm supposed to Be the man I ought to Rock and roll sent us insane I hope someday that we could meet again You go your way And I'll go my way No words can save us This lifestyle made us Run along like i'm supposed to Be the man I ought to Rock and roll sent us insane I hope someday that we will meet again

As I slide the key into the ignition of this old truck and fire it up I'm struck hard by the heaviness of this situation My eyes are fixed on the small silver half heart keychain You gave me dangling in the dashboard light I read the word "forever" over and over again, I wanna cry I turn off my radio as I turn off your county road To pick you up just like I've done at least a thousand times The gravel underneath these tires Half mile stretch of old barbed wire Drops of rain falling from the sky seem to know my pain Know that I'm about to Reach out to hold your hand in mine Feel your love baby one more time Press against your lips and hold you tight I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye I could put it off for another day Act like everything's gonna be okay It's gonna break my heart to see you cry I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye See it's not that what I got to do Is more important than you It's just what I gotta do And I know you don't understand Hell I don't understand myself As I pull up to your house I feel my head spinning around Just thinkin' about how everything is about to change Every step I take towards your door I'm a little less certain than the step before Oh but I know, I know, I know what I gotta do I got to reach out and hold your hand in mine Feel your love baby one more time Press against your lips and hold you tight I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye I could put it off for another day Act like everything's gonna be okay It's gonna break my heart to see you cry I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye Reach out and hold your hand in mine Feel your love baby one more time Press against your lips and hold you tight Yeah I could put it off for another day And act like everything's gonna be okay It's gonna break my heart to see you cry I know the next kiss is a kiss goodbye Goodbye

Hmm-hmm Mhhm-hmm, hmm-hmm Me live without regrets Forgive, but won't forget 'Cause you've heard me once And you've heard me twice But I'm not upset Nuff girl me get (yeah) But what I saw in you (you) Had my interest But you can kiss my love goodbye 'Cause now I'm gone And I know it's true That you've found someone But I'm alright (yes, I'm alright) I'll be okay And I know (oh), they can't get her next line in So kiss my love goodbye Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh My love, goodbye Never love another like you, oh no Girl, I've never been here before Never thought this would a be no more Gave me doubts, now I'm out that door And I ain't wishing bad for you Girl, I hope all your dreams come true And I found someone too So you can kiss my love goodbye 'Cause now I'm gone (now I'm gone) And I know it's true (true) That you've found someone But I'm alright (yes, I'm alright) I'll be okay (okay) And I know (oh), they can't get her next line in So kiss my love goodbye Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh My love goodbye It's just memories, yeah Memories, yeah, yeah Memories, yeah, memories, yeah, yeah Now I'm gone, now I'm gone I know it's true (it's true) You've found someone But I'm alright Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh My love goodbye

It started with a goodbye kiss I shoulda just walked right out that door Then I wouldn't be sittin' here drinkin' Thinkin' 'bout a bet I want just one more Wish she woulda told me that You never loved me anyway Then I might be in just a little bit better shape Shoulda never turned around Looked you in the eye Girl, you know it ain't fair That stare cuts me like a knife Shoulda kept my hands in my pockets So I didn't have to give you one last hug Maybe then I wouldn't be so fucked up Goodbye means goodbye No, not see you around From time to time And I know you hate to see me cry But goodbye means goodbye Lovin' somebody shouldn't have to be A means to an end Maybe it was just lust We're better off as friends I just can't get that last kiss Off my mind But goodbye means goodbye Oh, no, no, well Goodbye means goodbye No, not see you around From time to time And I know you hate to see me cry But goodbye means goodbye Oh, and goodbye means goodbye Started with a goodbye kiss I should a just walked right out that door

I lit a fire with the love you left behind And it burned wild and crept up the mountainside I followed your ashes into outer space I can't look out the window, I can't look at this place I can't look at the stars They make me wonder where you are Stars, up on Heaven's boulevard And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far So I, I can't look at the stars All those times we looked up at the sky Looking out so far, we felt like we could fly And now I'm all alone in the dark of night The moon is shining, but I can't see the light And I can't look at the stars They make me wonder where you are Stars, up on Heaven's boulevard And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far So I, I can't look at the stars Stars Stars, they make me wonder where you are Stars, up on Heaven's boulevard And if I know you at all, I know you've gone too far So I can't look at the stars

We got lost again Drove to the end of the road Met a red faced man taught us to do what we're told And on the twenty-third night Things aint bad but things ain't right Are we falling or flying? Are we falling or flying? Are we living or dying? I guess we'll never know The airs so heavy It could drown a butterfly If it flew to high And I get the feeling That the truck driver ain't shy Because he's lookin' at me but no where near my eye And on the thirty-fifth morning Things ain't good but things ain't boring Are we falling or flying? Are we falling or flying? Are we living or dying? I guess we'll never know Striking rock or hitting gold Sometimes it's hard to tell if there's a life behind a song? But I know tommorow Today won't feel so alone Because on the forty-second night The room was dark but the stage was bright Are we falling or flying? Are we falling or flying? Are we living, are we dying? 'Cause my friend this too shall pass So play every show like its your last

O Lord, I think I'm falling to my disbelief I'm cursing like a sailor and lying like a thief It's hard to heed the calling from the better side of me When I'm blaming everybody else and no one's coming clean O Lord, can You see my thick skin wearing thin? And the demons of a lesser me are beckoning me in Those who gathered 'round me I'm watching them all leave 'Cause I am my own ragged company So you can take a trip to China or take a boat to Spain Take a blue canoe around the world and never come back again But traveling don't change a thing, it only makes it worse Unless the trip you take is in to change your cruel course 'Cause every town's got a mirror And every mirror still shows me That I am my own ragged company I am my own ragged company Won't You help me, Lord? Won't You help me, Lord? Someone cut the cord And I'm falling down again Oh, it's lonely, Lord, it's mighty cold And I don't wanna live this way Afraid of growing old It's hard to heed the warning when you cannot see the crime The only way to remember is to forget in a rhyme And I'm scared to tread the red road that leads to Galilee 'Cause I am my own ragged company I am my own ragged company I am my own ragged company I am my own ragged company
