Tried a thousand times, used a million lines,
Tryin' to explain.
'Cause they don't have a word for the kind of hurt,
That never goes away.
When I try to think it though, it all comes back to you.
I don't know why goodbye's so hard to understand.
This pain I have is real an' I'll tell you how it feels,
If I ever get the chance.
It's like a lonely Friday night downtown,
Where everyone I know is out.
The radio's my only friend around,
And all I do is think of you.
It's a little like an old sad song:
It kills you but you sing it alone.
The melody just tears you all apart:
It's something like a broken heart.
I could drive a hundred miles an' never touch that dial,
'Till the station fades.
'Cause nothin' that I hear will ever make it clear:
Words just slip away.
And the more I think it through, the more I think of you
I don't know why goodbye's so hard to understand.
You're never hard to find, 'cause you're always on my mind,
No matter where I am.
Just like a lonely Friday night downtown,
Where everyone I know is out.
The radio's my only friend around,
An' all I do is think of you.
