Boy, I didn’t mean to wake you. I’m ok, yeah everything’s all right. 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 a lot 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.
CHORUS:
You should see this mountain sunrise, it looks just the way I dreamed. I 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 usin’ each other, as a safety net.
I bet someday your gonna thank me. when you finally get a taste of true love. Baby, what we had was pretty good, just not enough.
So here’s to tears we’ll never cry, I just called to say goodbye.
