The Girl Who Said Goodbye

Vera Bradley bag in her silver Chevy

Heavy on the gas heading out of town

Faith Hill CD "The Way You Love Me"

On repeat tears coming down

Her leaving was the only reason that I found him

She thought something better was out there

But, what she left behind was an answered prayer

To all the pain, heartbreak in the past

She didn't know just what she had

Gave up a man willing to give her everything

I took what she took for granted so easily

I ought to thank my lucky stars in the sky

And the girl who said goodbye

If one man's trash is another man's treasure

Then, I reckon I'm the richest girl around

He's honest as the day is long,

Black coffee kind of strong

Sure feels like home to me

Why would someone ever leave

She thought something better was out there

But, what she left behind was an answered prayer

To all the pain, heartbreak in the past

She didn't know just what she had

Gave up a man willing to give her everything

I took what she took for granted so easily

I ought to thank my lucky stars in the sky

And the girl who said goodbye

I should write her a letter

Buy her the best bottle of wine

Cause she's made my life better

And I can't believe I get to call him mine

She thought something better was out there

But, what she left behind was an answered prayer

To all the pain, heartbreak in the past

Too bad she didn't know just what she had

Gave up a man willing to give her everything

I took what she took for granted so easily

I ought to thank my lucky stars in the sky

And the girl who said goodbye

Thank God she said goodbye
