Goodbye to hometown expectations
Goodbye to my favorite dream
Goodbye to the perks and the lasts and the firsts
And the look on my mom's face
When she hears me sing
Goodbye to the part you were playing
Goodbye to respect in a room
I didn't know I had so much to lose
This is goodbye to a lot more than you
Goodbye Friday mornings
Goodbye inside jokes
Goodbye to the songs that the world never heard
All the midnight joints we never smoked
I smile when I stumble on a memory
And I cry after I've had a few
When you walked away, bet that you never knew
This is goodbye to a lot more than you
Goodbye to what I thought was my future
Goodbye to eight years of my past
To the nights with the band looking out at the fans
And the lights, thinking, "Damn, what a view"
This is goodbye to a lot more than you
It's been a delight and it sucks that it's through
Goodbye
