Well I guess if I'm honest, it has been a little while Since she gave me one of her carefree smiles Not the one that you see in the pictures But the one she saved for me That said here in this moment you're all I hoped you'd be Still tonight when she said she needed a little time Lettin' go for good never did cross my mind 'Til the goodbye kiss that lingered a little too long 'Til the tear in her eye made me say, "Baby, tell me what's wrong" 'Til she drove away and never looked me in the eye I'm not sure, but that sure felt like goodbye No she didn't come out and say it, but I don't think she'll be back She left outta here like a woman whose bags were packed And I shoulda seen this comin', no I shouldn't be so surprised She's a child of the highway and the wide open skies No one man ever held her heart completely What was I thinkin', thinkin' it might be me 'Til the goodbye kiss that lingered a little too long 'Til the tear in her eye made me say, "Baby, tell me what's wrong" 'Til she drove away and never looked me in the eye I'm not sure, but that sure felt like goodbye Sure felt like goodbye Maybe I'm readin' this wrong She sure didn't leave me much to go on Just a goodbye kiss that lingered a little too long Just a tear in her eye when I said, "Baby, tell me what's wrong" Then she drove away and never looked me in the eye I'm not sure, but that sure felt like goodbye
