Goodbye
Patty Griffin

Occured to me the other day

You've been gone now a couple years

Well, I guess it takes while

For someone to really disappear

And I remember where I was

When the word came about you

It was a day much like today

The sky was bright, and wide, and blue


And I wonder where you are

And if the pain ends when you die

And I wonder if there was

Some better way to say goodbye


Today my heart is big and sore

It's tryin' to push right through my skin

I won't see you anymore

I guess that's finally sinkin' in

'cause you can't make somebody see

By the simple words you say

All their beauty from within

Sometimes they just look away


But I wonder where you are

And if the pain ends when you die

And I wonder if there was

Some better way to say goodbye
