  • Well, it's pretty much understood
    Rainy days are just no good for leaving
    No need mixing misery and gin
    So it goes for icy days, heartache and slick highways
    No time to wait, you're gonna break
    If you bend and bend again

    But a fresh new start will warm your heart
    Like the sun breaking through a cloudy sky

    If ever was a good day
    It's the day that boy can kiss that girl goodbye
    Just like a red eye flight
    Two tail lights in the night
    Gon' spread two wings and fly
    That boy can kiss that girl goodbye
    Just like a westbound train
    You're drinking cheap champagne
    Got no more tears to cry
    And you're long gone like a whisper in the wind
    That boy can kiss that girl goodbye
    Bye bye, bye bye

    No need in naming names
    players love playing games
    And he played your heart like a little violin
    It's brand new rhyme and riddle
    it's your turn to play that fiddle
    And that same old song and dance is coming to an end

    'Cause a fresh new start will warm your heart
    Like the sun breaking through a cloudy sky

    If ever was a good day
    It's the day that boy can kiss that girl goodbye
    Just like a red eye flight
    Two tail lights in the night
    Gon' spread two wings and fly
    That boy can kiss that girl goodbye
    Just like a westbound train
    You're drinking cheap champagne
    Got no more tears to cry
    And you're long gone like a whisper in the wind
    That boy can kiss that girl goodbye
    Bye bye, bye bye
    That boy can kiss that girl goodbye

    If he really wants a goodbye kiss
    He must be out of his ever-loving mind
    If he really wants a goodbye kiss
    You tell him to go kiss it where the sun don't shine

    If ever was a good day
    It's the day that boy can kiss that girl goodbye
    Just like a red eye flight
    Two tail lights in the night
    Gon' spread two wings and fly
    That boy can kiss that girl goodbye
    Just like a westbound train
    You're drinking cheap champagne
    Got no more tears to cry

    You're out like a light, like a red eye flight
    Like two tail lights in the dusty midnight
    He's out of mind, you're out of sight
    That ship has sailed, that shit don't fly
    You're gone like a train, like a westbound train
    With a one way ticket, drinking cheap champagne
    Flush him down the drain 'cause there's no more tears to cry
    And you're long gone like a whisper in the wind
    That boy can kiss that girl goodbye Writer/s: Aaron Watson
