The Big Goodbye (Explicit) Lyrics

The Big Goodbye (Explicit) - AJR

Lyrics by:Ryan Met/Jack Met

Composed by:Ryan Met/Jack Met/Leroy Van Dyke/Buddy Black

Produced by:Ryan Met

I wrote a song bout being weak

Now I hear congratulations

They know me in LA now it seems

Today I finally get to leave

Leave this little life I'm used to

The shows that no one came to

They're shrinking in my rearview

And I should be so happy I could cry

If this is what a happy end looks like

Someone tell me why

Why I'm all in my head

Why you're all on my mind

Why it feels like my friends

Are leaving me behind

Why I miss all the ****

I've seen a million times

No don't look back just drive

Someone tell me why

Why my town feels like home

For the first time in years

Why'd I need to be known

They ******* know me here

But it could be a movie

With a feel good end

Oh god I hope it is

Then my whole life could sound like this

Just make it sound like this

Oh wish I could take you

All where I'm heading

Guess I can FaceTime into all of your weddings

And I'll be on your TVs so

You won't forget me

You won't forget me right?

Oh then tell me why

Why I'm all in my head

Why you're all on my mind

Why it feels like my friends

Are leaving me behind

Why I miss all the ****

I've seen a million times

No don't look back just drive

Someone tell me why

Why my town feels like home

For the first time in years

Why'd I need to be known

They ******* know me here

But it could be a movie

With a feel good end

Oh god I hope it is

Then my whole life could sound like this

Don't turn around kid

You know what you're doing

Tell us about it at the 10-Year reunion

We'll all be here kid

Saying we knew ya

Hope you can make it to the 10-Year reunion

Hope you can make it to the 10-Year reunion

Just make it sound like this

Hope you can make it to the 10-Year reunion

Alright then

Just make it sound like this

Just make it sound like this

Just make it sound like this

And someday I'll sing about the **** I did

And not the **** I'll miss

 

Then my whole life can sound like this
