Tough Goodbye by Gary Allan Lyrics

[Verse 1]
That was a tough goodbye
And what tore me down was
Watchin’ her try not to cry
She asked me to stay
And for a minute, I thought I might
Yeah, that was a tough goodbye

[Verse 2]
That was a long night
Full of lookin’ back and wonderin’
What it might ‘a been like
Must’ve drove her memory
Across at least ten state lines
Yeah, that was a long, long night

[Chorus]
And I’m not quite ready yet
To settle down or even let
Someone get a hold of me
‘Cause I’m not done being free
I still have a few roads
To travel down and Lord knows
I got way too close that time
Yeah, that was a tough goodbye
[Verse 3]
That was a hurtin’ kind
Not the so long after a while
See ya soon, some other time
Where I just walk away
And everybody’s fine
No, that was a hurtin’ kind

[Chorus]
And I’m not quite ready yet
To settle down or even let
Someone get a hold of me
‘Cause I’m not done being free
I still have a few roads
To travel down and Lord knows
I got way too close that time
Yeah, that was a tough goodbye

[Bridge]
I know I won’t find anyone better
I, I can’t keep on runnin’ forever

[Chorus]
See, I’m not quite ready yet
To settle down or even let
Someone get a hold of me
‘Cause I’m not done being free
I still have a few roads
To travel down and Lord knows
I got way too close that time
That was a tough goodbye
That was a tough goodbye
[Outro]
Well, that was a tough goodbye
And what tore me down was
Watchin’ her try not to cry
