That's What I Meant By Goodbye Lyrics - Singles - Levi Smith

Interstate 37 is paved with good intentions 

I'm prob'ly 50 years from heaven 

But I'm 15 miles from hell 

With two lanes to myself 

So thank God for Derek and Jesse 

For pouring out their hearts to me 

Side by side in my back seat 

They never let me down 

So I don't need anybody now 

And I did my best to pretend 

That I'm gonna' see you again 

And I may cross your mind 

Before I cross the state line 

But if I don't call, don't be surprised 

That's what I meant by goodbye 

Just 'cause I don't know where I'm headed 

That don't mean I'm lost 

I'm an empty can kicked across an empty parking lot 

And this is all that I could ever want 

So I'll do my best to pretend 

That I'm gonna' see you again 

And I may cross your mind 

Before I cross the state line 

But if I don't call, don't be surprised 

That's what I meant by goodbye 

I didn't say I'd see you later 

'Cause I know that I might not 

Yellow lights are yellin' at me 

On the edge of town 

And one cold night in Corpus Christi 

Is not enough to make me turn around 

Much less make me settle down 

So I'll do my best to pretend 

That I'm gonna' see you again 

And I may cross your mind 

Before I cross the state line 

But if I don't call, don't be surprised 

That's what I meant by goodbye 

Goodbye 

And I may cross your mind 

Before I cross the state line 

But if I don't call, don't be surprised 

Don't be surprised, baby 

That's what I meant by goodbye
