Lyrics

To Say Goodbye
words & music by elwood

I just called to say goodbye,
Thought I'd talk to you just one more time.
My dreams are on their way, 
I'm headed out today.
Why do I feel so bad inside,
I just called to say goodbye.

CHORUS:
I never dreamed it could hurt so bad,
sayin’ goodbye for good.
In spite of the trouble we’ve had,
I never really thought I would.
But I just called to say goodbye.

I just called to let you know,
the car is packed I’m ready to go.
You won’t see me any more,
Around town or at the store,
That funny feeling we both know.
I just called to let you know.

CHORUS

I didn’t call to make you cry,
I thought it might make you smile.
It’s good to hear your voice,
Sometimes I think about the choice.
Do you ever ask yourself why?
I just called to say goodbye.

CHORUS
