This Side of Goodbye

歌詞

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
