V1
He thought about leaving a note
But he couldn’t think what to say
He heard the call of the road
And nothing was gonna get in his way.
He grabbed his hat and walked out into the night
And that’s a bad way to say goodbye.
V2
Somewhere in the back of her mind
She always knew there was a chance
One day she’d wake-up and find
That she would have to start all over again.
He left his ring and when she saw it she cried
And that’s a bad way to say goodbye.
BRIDGE.
The house is empty and cold
She checks for open windows
Then goes to the kitchen to make some tea
For too long she’s been alone
What stops her from moving on
And keeps her in love with a memory?
V3
Late one night she’s watching TV
When she hears a knock on the door
He says can you forgive me
Just enough to let me sleep on the floor?
That night he laid down beside her and held her tight
And that’s a bad way to say goodbye.
TAG.
Somewhere in the back of her mind
She always knew there was a chance.
