I got a f riend he lives down in old A lbuquerque
We used to w atch the sun com ing up toget her
But he was h ungry then and h e got restl ess
I heard he t ook a wife, I thi nk her name is Heather
All of a sudden I'm driving in the rain
With the Santa Fe horizon c alling out my name
Should have done it sooner, n ow I know it's t ime
Cause w e said a lot o f things, but we never said goodbye
We were a t eam, we were the best of friends
We had a w orld were no- one else could find us
The summer p assed, Septe mber came too soon
And su ddenly that world wa s all behind us
Driving through the night with no thing on my mind
But the thought of catching up wi th a ghost I left behind
Don't know what I'll do but I know I've got to tr y
Cause w e said a lot o f things, but we never said g oodbye
I drove 1 000 miles ch asing a memory
But all t he pieces of what used to be h ave shattered
And all t he little things that used to mea n so much
I look around me now an d see that they don't matter
All of a sudden I'm driving home again
Cause sometimes goodbye is better left u nsaid
The Santa Fe horizon w ill know the rea son why
I said a lot of t hings to you, b ut I never sai d goodbye
