Max Stalling - Goodnight Never Meant Goodbye Lyrics

Here it is one a.m. Don Williams on my radio
You know "Some Broken Hearts Never Mend" reminds me of you
Sleeping alone in that big old house way out here so far from town
I hear the coyotes howling as I stop to open the last gate out

Chorus:
Goodnight has never meant
You know I've tried, it's never meant
Goodnight has never meant goodbye

Sheriff Murray knows just where I've been he shakes his head as I roll by
He probably knows we drank too much but he knows I'm going home so he lets it slide
Everybody in this scrub brush town knows the deal between me and you
They're just trying to figure out which of us is the bigger fool

Chorus:
And Goodnight has never meant
You know I've tried, it's never meant
Goodnight has never meant goodbye

Two sides of one coin
We could try but what's the point
When goodnight has never meant goodbye

Talk around the cafe last week was you sold the last of your daddy's herd
Oh, I ain't said a word 'cause I know you've got your pride
But I been thinking what's done is done and nothing holds the two of us
So let these fences all fall down and ghost and coyotes can have this ground

Chorus:
Goodnight has never meant
You know I've tried, it's never meant
Goodnight has never meant
You know we've tried, it's never meant
Goodnight has never meant goodbye
