Matt Ryczek Goodbye
He leaves home just like every morning
The same goodbye to his son
Kiss on the cheek to the woman he loves
And it's off to work for another day
Traffic jam outside the city
Leaves him anxious once again
He parks his car and rushes up the stairs
Puts his briefcase down and sits in his chair
Over-looking the town he calls home
And everyone is unaware
Glimmer from the frame of the picture on his desk
Of the family he loves
Uneasiness fills his chest
So he calls his wife just to tell her this:
Don't wait up for me tonight
Cause I won't be comin' home
And everything's gonna be alright
I just wanted you to know
I just had to call you one more time
Just to rest your mind
Don't wait up for me tonight
Cause I won't be comin' home
And everything's gonna be alright
I just wanted you to know
The lights go out, people shout
People crying, me I'm trying
Mothers cry, fathers die
And me I'm still holding on to you...
A few more words and I'm going to go
I can see the end from here
I love you I just wanted to say
Those three words to you today
