Lyrics
Goodbye Letter © 2011 Donovan Tucker BMI
Verse 1 :
We both started acting' angry
Pointing fingers placing blame
I left a note there on your dresser
Then like a fool I drove away
Chorus :
I could've loved you so much better
But I couldn't love you anymore - than I do
I'll take back my goodbye letter
If I could just hold you like before
Remember the time when we were hungry
Hungry for each other's touch
We were a long , long way from angry
I couldn't get home fast enough
Chorus
Bridge
I'm trying to tell you that I'm sorry
For all the times I let you down
I'll take back my goodbye letter
If I could just hold you
Maybe spend a little time together
If I could just hold you like before
