What a sweet sweet life this is
Don't know where I'm going
Wouldn't matter if I did
And its cold cold out in the midnight hours
Pacing the pavement
And the dogwood flowers
The streetlights look like stars on poles
Lighting up the city
Once the sun goes home
And I imagine you laying there
On your big big bed
All of your brand new plans
Running through your head
And I walked all night until my feet got sore
And nobody writes letters anymore
So its good goodbye
Through the screen door
These old old houses
Have seen everything
Standing there watching
The mistakes being made
They're huddled all around me
So I can't run
Whispering you can't be everything to everyone
And I walked all night until my feet got sore
And no one promises forever anymore
So it's good goodbye through the screen door
When the sun crawled out of the earth
I was there to see it first
And I walked all night until my feet got sore
And nobody writes letters anymore
And forever is too long not to be sure
So it's good goodbye through the screen door
