Wish I Would've Said Goodbye

[Verse] Wish I would've said goodbye, Don't really know the reasons why, Yesterday has passed, today is here, Tomorrow's not promised to anyone, that's clear. [Verse 2] Saw you standing by that old oak tree, Heart in my hands, but I just couldn't see, Words caught in my throat like autumn leaves, Now all I got are these sad memories. [Chorus] Wish I would've said goodbye, To your face, under the clear blue sky, But now you're gone, and I'm alone, Singing this regret in a big ol' empty home. [Verse 3] Morning sun breaks the Eastern ridge, Silence echoes on that creaky bridge, I walk these fields where we once laughed, And feel the ghost of a love that couldn't last. [Verse 4] Rain taps softly on my tin roofed barn, Your guitar sits lonely, no longer charmed, The scent of wildflowers in the morning dew, Reminding me of the dreams I had with you. [Chorus] Wish I would've said goodbye, How the heck did we let this chance fly by? Now you're gone, and I can't deny, Regret's the song of a broken-hearted guy.
