The Steeldrivers - Lonesome Goodbye Lyrics

I can’t fool myself to sleep
So I go out and walk these streets each night
Over and over
I guess these streets don’t suit my shoes
Won’t help me walk away these blues I tried
Sure been a lonesome goodbye

Little pictures of the past
Things I thought would never last flash by
Over and over
I turned my collar to the cold
Cause I can’t stand to be alone
I’ve tried
It sure been a lonesome goodbye

I could stay this way forever
Never swallow any pride
Pretend I’m doin’ better
Than the way I feel inside
Like I’m livin’ a lie

I could stay this way forever
Never swallow any pride
Pretend I’m doin’ better
Than the way I feel inside

But I can’t fool myself to sleep
So I go out and walk these streets each night
Over and over
And here I stand in front of you
I guess you been out walking too
Don’t cry
It sure been a lonesome goodbye

Yeah it sure been a lonesome goodbye

Girl it sure was a lonesome goodbye
