Lyrics

The situation grew riskier
As my heart grew heavier
And I know you were pissed and hurt
And dragged my name on through the dirt
But you know it was not my plan
I was caught up with kin with a heavy hand
And I hope that you can understand
That I didi my best in the circumstance
But I never meant to say goodbye to you my dear
No I never meant to say goodbye to you
Now there’s three sides to every story
One for you and one for me
You can rant and rave about how I’ve behaved
If that’s what you want to do
But the third side comes from way up high
From a bird’s eye view
We’re all criminals for our own desires
That my friend is true
But I never meant to say goodbye to you my dear
No I never meant to say goodbye to you
I never meant for it to end this way
But we all had dreams and bills to pay
You know I want the best for you babe
That’s what I think and that’s what I say
And I can still see your name in neon lights
Your voice like an angel in the night
With a harp and a fiddle strung
You know it sounds so right
But I never meant to say goodbye to you my dear
No I never meant to say goodbye to you no no
