Good at Goodbye

If I was a good guy, I'd help you pack up

I'd watch that old truck back down the driveway

I'd call your best friend and tell her what's coming

So it ain't so hard to pick up your broke heart

But I'd rather have whiskey on my lips

Than tell you we're done and this is it

I'd rather keep faking love

Than tell the truth and just man up

And I'd rather leave you on read

'Cause, "I don't love you" can't be unsaid

Hell, this would be a good time

To be a good guy

And be good at goodbye

If I could just speak up, I'd give you the reasons

But I keep on kissing you goodnight

When I should be kissing you goodbye

But I'd rather have whiskey on my lips

Than tell you we're done and this is it

I'd rather keep faking love

Than tell the truth and just man up

And I'd rather leave you on read

'Cause, "I don't love you" can't be unsaid

Hell, this would be a good time

To be a good guy

And be good at goodbye

Oh

I can't take the hell and back to put you through

So I've turned into the ghost of who you knew

Yeah, I'd rather have whiskey on my lips

Than tell you we're done and this is it

I'd rather keep faking love

Than tell the truth and just man up

And I'd rather leave you on read

'Cause, "I don't love you" can't be unsaid

Hell, this would be a good time

To be a good guy

And be good at goodbye
