Boy, I didn't mean to wake you
I'm okay, yeah everything's alright
I'm in a phone booth outside of Denver
I drove all night
Well, I would've called you sooner
But I knew you'd talk me out of this
I've had alot of miles to do some thinkin'
Now it all makes perfect sense
No, I haven't changed my mind
I just called to say goodbye
You should see this mountain sunrise
It looks just the way I dreamed
Got my map of Colorado in the seat right next to me
If it ain't packed in this ol' Plymouth
It's better left behind
I just called to say goodbye
Boy, you know I'm gonna miss you
But we both know it's for the best
We just can't keep using each other
As a safety net
I bet someday you're gonna thank me
When you finally get a taste of true love
Baby, what we had was pretty good
Just not enough
So, hear's to tears we'll never cry
I just called to say goodbye
(Repeat Chorus)
If it ain't packed in this ol' Plymouth
It's better left behind
I just called to say goodbye
I just called to say goodbye
