I've never been one for cigarette smoke
But my nerves are shot, I need an antidote
My mouth is dry like the summer in the south
She's stickin' to her guns and I'm down and out
Goodbye Lily, I'm gone for good
Packed up my things like I said I would
The road is dark and I can barely see
Goodbye Lily, no more leaving me
Well she called me up last night at 3
She said it hurts like hell being left by me
My love for her was like aged alcohol
Yeah, the older it grew the harder I'd fall
Goodbye Lily, I'm gone for good
Packed up my things like I said I would
The road is dark and I can barely see
Goodbye Lily, no more leaving me
Well I've tossed and I've turned
I've broken down but I've learned
I swerved off the road trying to catch my breath
Cause I've been runnin' on fumes and runnin' half dead
It's nothing new, rather old instead
Cause runnin' from you is like runnin' from death
Goodbye Lily, I'm gone for good
Packed up my things like I said I would
The road is dark and I can barely see
Goodbye Lily, no more leaving me
Baby goodbye, no more leaving me
Baby goodbye, no more leaving me
Say goodbye, say goodbye...
I've never been one for cigarette smoke
But my nerves are shot, I need an antidote
