Southern Goodbyes (Acoustic Version) Lyrics

There's a sweet desert moon that hangs high over El Paso

We can watch the stars fall from the sky in Balmorhea

Even though the rain rarely falls I know a place on the Gulf of Mexico

With an ocean breeze we'll find a cool spot under the shade

You're all I long for

Won't you stay?

I love your southern goodbyes

The way that you walk away

I love that shine in your eyes

From the moment you wake

I love your southern hellos

I love that smile on your face

I hate the way that you go

So baby please won't you stay

Sweeter than a tall glass of tea you learn to make from your mama

The way the words slide off your tongue you mind your P's and Q's

Brown Texas tan the way you swam around in the water

Cause when summer comes around you're the first one to kick off your shoes

I love your southern goodbyes

The way that you walk away

I love that shine in your eyes

So baby please won't you stay

All I want for

Is only you

I love your southern goodbyes

The way that you walk away

I love that shine in your eyes

From the moment you wake

I love your southern hellos

I love that smile on your face

I hate the way that you go

So baby please won't you stay

I hate the way that you go

So baby please won't you stay

Please stay

I love your southern goodbyes
