Lyrics
GOODBYE TO THE GOOD THINGS By Brent Rhodes VERSE I Looks like this silver spring has finally run you dry And I don’t need your money tree no more I see the mountaintop, but time won’t let you fly PRE-CHORUS I’ll never leave you on a ledge. I’ll never hang you from a rope I’ll just abandon you Sit tight, I’ll be back soon CHORUS Cold, cold pink champagne (Goodbye to the good things) No one else to blame (Goodbye to the good things) One more heart to break When I’m all alone, then I’m coming home VERSE II I know you waited for me backstage at the show Played you like a harp then let you go Could I be evil just because I’m making dough? PRE-CHORUS II I’ll never leave you on a ledge. I’ll never hang you from a rope Good luck with the family Sweet mother soon-to-be (Just wait, you’ll be so happy) CHORUS II Cold, cold pink champagne (Goodbye to the good things) No one else to blame (Goodbye to the good things) One more heart to break When I’m all alone, then I’m coming home PRE-CHORUS III I’ll never leave you on a ledge I’ll never hang you from a rope Your eyes look colder now Here’s a year supply of wool CHORUS Cold, cold pink champagne (Goodbye to the good things) No one else to blame (Goodbye to the good things) One more heart to break When I’m all alone, then I’m coming I’m coming I’m coming home
