so hold me close but don't get too comfortable

this might be the last time you hear my voice

is this goodbye? or is it goodnight?

i promise to call if you promise not to cry

because every tear you waste on me

isn't worth the air i breath



let's make the best of what we've had

and would you care if i don't come back?

can you hear me scream your name?

hear me from a thousand miles away?

can you hear my scream your name?



so let's get this show out on the road

who cares if we don't know where to go

well this is goodbye, give me a kiss goodnight

i promise to call if you promise me you'll cry



let's make the best of what we've had

i promise you i won't come back

can you hear me scream your name?

hear me from a thousand miles away?

can you hear my scream your name?



i'm leaving town tonight

and i want to hear something from you

anything from you
