im getting good at "good byes"
do 'em all the time
can look you straight in the eyes
and hardly even cry

im gettin better at telling lies
say one or two everytime
i'll kiss you soft and say
we'll meet again someday

so darling, before you and I
get much closer together tonight
before you've swept my heart away
there's something i should say

we can be together tonight
and i'll sure hold you tight
but honey you should know
i'm gettin' good at letting go

it might feel like we could stay
and i'll love you for always
but when the road calls me on down the line...
I'm gettin' good at "good byes"
