So Long Song

I found a picture today

It was the photo booth kind

I saw your smiling face

And it brought a tear to my eye

In one you were being goofy

I had a grin from ear to ear

The two where you were kissing me

That's when the tear became tears

It's a silly thing forgotten memory

But today I saw it so damn clear

I picked up the phone

Thought about calling you

Threw it across the room

Cause I know the truth

It's no good holding on

So I sat down to write this song

Just to say goodbye girl so long

You'll never read these words

And that's more than okay

I don't need you anymore

Just things I need to hear myself say

I heard from a mutual friend

You met the guy you thought I was

The reason we had to end

Well I hope he makes you smile

Like you are in this ol photo

Pray he's strong enough to hold ya close

I picked up my pen

Thought about what to say

I don't know where to begin

Or if it'll matter anyway

It's no good holding on

So I sat down to write this song

Just to say goodbye girl so long

Thought about burnen that picture

A symbolic gesture

Bu than I smiled and hung it up

Not because I still miss you

Just to remember sometimes love

Is more about a moment than forever

I picked up my heart

For the first time in years

Thought about your arms

And I didn't shed a tear

It's no good holding on

So I sat down to write this song

Just to say goodbye girl

Just to say so long
