Joey & Rory - To Say Goodbye lyrics

rate me

He said I’ll call you hun when I get there

Ten minutes later he was in the air

She dropped the kids at school and headed home

Walked in and turned the front room TV on

She could tell that there was something wrong

Every channel had the same thing on

Now seven years have come and gone away

But she’s still hurtin’ like its yesterday

Cause she wants to put her arms around his neck

And look in his eyes so blue

And say honey I don’t regret

A single day I spent with you

She wants to tell him that she loves him so

And will until the day she dies

It ain’t that she can’t let him go

She just wants to say goodbye

He sits beside her in the nursing home

Through her silver hair he runs a comb

He hangs their wedding picture on the wall

She don’t remember who he is at all

He tells her stories bout the life they’ve lived

From their first kiss to their last grandkids

For seven months now she just sits and stares

But if she wakes up he’ll be right there

Cause he wants to put his arms around her neck

And look in her eyes so blue

And say honey I won’t forget

A single day I spent with you

He wants to tell her that he loves her so

And will until the day he dies

It ain’t that he can’t let her go

He just wants to say goodbye

No it ain’t that we can’t let ‘em go

We just want to say goodbye
