Goodbye, don’t ask me why…

Lyrics
Intro
Verse 1
The suitcase waits by the doorway like it don’t belong no more
Your coat is hanging lonely where it always hung before
The rain keeps drumming steady on that old tin roof above
We sit here at the table, too afraid to speak of love
I see the questions burning in your tired hazel eyes
But I just shake my head and stare down at the floor in silence
The quiet wraps around us like a blanket made of stone
This is the moment we both knew was coming all along
The words are getting heavy, they’re too hard to explain
So, I just say it simple through the pouring rain
Chorus
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
The highway calls my name beneath the midnight sky
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
I need to break this chain before the morning light
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
I’m leaving you and all my dreams behind
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
No tears can change my mind, It’s time for me to fly
Don’t ask me why…. Goodbye
Verse 2
You reach across the air like you want to pull me near
But something in my chest says I can’t stay another year
The memories still smile like nothing’s wrong
I touch and feel the weight of everything we’ve done
We built a little heaven out of nothing but our hands
Now it’s turning into quicksand underneath these plans
I wish I had the courage to look you in the eye
But all I’ve got is silence and this final sad goodbye
If the loneness finds you crying when the sun begins to rise
Just know I loved you truly, even when I said goodbye
Final Chorus
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
The highway calls my name beneath the midnight sky
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
I need to break this chain before the morning light
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
I’m leaving you and all my dreams behind
Goodbye, don’t ask me why
No tears can change my mind, It’s time for me to fly
Don’t ask me why…. Goodbye
Outro
Goodbye, don’t ask me why…
Goodbye, don’t ask me why…
