Couldn't Last Lyrics

Deanna Couldn't Last

[Verse 1]
Think of how soft you felt,
think of your winter coat,
think of the note you wrote
Get my hopes up---don't
It was that kind of love:
the kind you never want,
the one you feel so good about
but aren't enough

[Hook]
You think that you're ready,
but you're never ready
for things to be steady, then heavy, then ending
There is no preparing,
there's no warning light
to let you know that this is your kiss goodbye

[Chorus]
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

[Verse 2]
Think of our first real date
Didn't kiss you on the jungle gym
Oh, how naive of me
to so regret it then
It was that kind of love:
the kind that couldn't last, couldn't last,
the one that felt so powerful
but faded fast

[Chorus/Outro]
Goodbye (You think that you're ready,)
Goodbye (but you're never ready)
Goodbye (You think that you're ready,)
Goodbye (but you're never ready)
Goodbye
