I can hear the truck tires coming up the gravel road
And it's not like him to drive that slow, nothing's on the radio
Footsteps on the front porch, I hear my doorbell
He usually comes right in, now I can tell

Here comes goodbye
Here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every sleepless night
The first of every tear I'm gonna cry
Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishing things had never changed
And he was right here in my arms tonight
But here comes goodbye

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let 'em out
I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm okay
That's not what gets me

What hurts the most was being so close
And having so much to say (to say)
And watching you walk away
And never knowing what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do

Why does it have to go from good to gone?
Before the lights turn on, yeah, and you're left alone
All alone (all alone), here comes goodbye

Here comes goodbye (what hurts the most)
Here comes the last time (was being so close)
Here comes the start of every sleepless night
The first of every tear I'm gonna cry
And never knowing what could have been
Here comes me wishing things had never changed
And you were right here in my arms tonight

Not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
Here comes goodbye
