Drew Kennedy - Goodbye





Website

Drew Kennedy on Lone Star Music


New Braunfels resident Drew Kennedy is an accomplished singer/songwriter whose vision effortlessly bridges the folk, country, and Americana genres.


From the album Dollar Theater Movie, a song called "Goodbye."


He wrote her a note
Through the whiskey and smoke
On a brown paper bag that he found on the table
Said, I'm sorry I'm not able to stay
But I've got to be going away
So much that I want to say
You deserve the truth
You deserve your youth
You deserve much better than holding me together

Remember the night
We drove under the lights
And the golden gates all the way to Oakland
I've never had more fun in my life
When you think of me remember that night
If I have the right
To ask that's what you do
I am so in love with you
And you deserve much better
Than trying to hold me together

Chorus:
So I'll be gone
When you come home
Please don't cry
And waste your gorgeous eyes on me
I believed you when you said you'd never leave
So please let me

Goodbye
Be with me until I die
When I wake up alone in a home that's sad and new
Forgive me for the things that I do
You deserve the truth
You deserve your youth
You deserve much better than holding me together
