Kiss Goodbye

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
