I hoped that we would have more time to sort through all our clothes

To fold and pack the memories of how much we had to grow

You kept the t-shirts, kept the socks, i know they matched your coats

You left the hoodie, august, rhode-island, my heart won’t let

[i’m learning to let it go]

I almost said don’t forget me

I almost said keep in touch

But when i opened up my mouth, i heard

Good luck love

I hoped that we wouldn’t cry so much but we had to, had to cry

Our benediction, our wednesday evening prayer, it heard our eyes

Our convеrsation ended our conversation of our lifе

We shared and shed our consolation tears

Always did call it like we felt it right

I almost said don’t forget me

I almost said keep in touch

But when i opened up my mouth, i heard

Good luck love

[you’ve got no story to live up to but your own

Not mine or anyone else’s]

I almost said don’t forget me

I almost said keep in touch

But when i opened up my mouth, i heard

Good luck love

If i run into you next tuesday

We’ll say, what’s good

We’ll say, what’s good

And we’ll remember it was good
