I remember holdin' on to you All them long and lonely nights I put you through Somewhere in there I'm sure I made you cry But I can't remember if we said goodbye. But I recall all of them nights down in Mexico One place I may never go in my life again Was I just off somewhere or just too high But I can't remember if we said goodbye. I only miss you every now and then Like the soft breeze blowin' up from the Caribbean Most Novembers I break down and cry Cause I can't remember if we said goodbye. But I recall all of them nights down in Mexico One place I will never go in my life again Was I just off somewhere or just too high But I can't remember if we said goodbye. Steve Earle - Goodbye Lyrics. I remember holdin on to you All them long and lonely nights I put you through Somewhere in there I'm sure I made you cry But I can't remember if we said goodbye But I recall all of them nights down in Mexico One place I may never go in my life again Was I just off somewhere just too high But I can't remember if we said goodbye I only miss you here every now and then Like the soft breeze blowin up from the Caribbean' Most Novembers I break down and cry But I can't remember if we said goodbye But I recall all of them nights down in Mexico One place I may never go in my life again Oh was I off somewhere may be just to high But I can't remember if we said goodbye But I can't remember if we said goodbye Goodbye Goodbye. I Can't Remember If We Said Goodbye by Steve Earle. My famous last words Are laying around in tatters Sounding absurd Whatever I try But I love And that's all that really matters If this is goodbye If this is goodbye. Your bright shining sun Would light up the way before me You were the one Made me feel I could fly And I love you Whatever is waiting for me If this is goodbye If this is goodbye. Who knows how long we've got Or what were made out of Who knows if there's a plan or not There is our love I know there is our love. My famous last words Could never tell the story Spinning unheard In the dark of the sky But I love you And this is our glory If this is goodbye If this is goodbye If this is goodbye If this is goodbye.

Per wikipedia: Train a Comin’ is the fifth studio album by Steve Earle (his first in five years), released in 1995. It was the first album recorded after Earle overcame his addiction to drugs in the fall of 1994, after being convicted for possession. Most of the songs on the album are older material written when Earle was in his late teens and twenties, including “Hometown Blues,” “Sometimes She Forgets,” “Mercenary Song,” “Ben McCulloch,” “Nothin’ Without You,” and “Tom Ames’ Prayer.” According to the liner notes of the album, “Angel is the Devil” was one of only four songs written during his hiatus, which he refers to as his “vacation in the ghetto,” and the mandolin line of “Mystery Train part II” was written in the early 1990s with the lyrics finished the day it was recorded. The album also includes an instrumental by Norman Blake and three covers: Townes Van Zandt’s “Tecumseh Valley”, the Beatles’ “I’m Looking Through You” and The Melodians’ reggae standard “Rivers of Babylon.” “ Goodbye ” was written while Earle was in court-ordered rehab in the fall of 1994. In concerts, Earle introduces the song as the first song he wrote clean, and as a “ ninth step in the key of C ,” referring to the step in which an addict seeks to make amends. Earle drew on established bluegrass and acoustic instrumentalists for the album, which was a departure from his earlier work with backing band the Dukes. He said to an interviewer at the time that he was seeking an older sound, and the album was recorded in just five days. “ I was goin’ for a sound where it sounded like old Opry stuff, where everybody stepped around the mike, which is real close to what we actually did. It ended up being even more of an organic record than I thought it was gonna be. “ Personnel: Steve Earle – guitar, high string guitar, 12 string guitar, harmonica, mandolin, vocals Peter Rowan – mandolin, mandola, gut string guitars, vocals Norman Blake – Hawaiian guitar, dobro, mandolin, fiddle, guitar Roy Huskey, Jr. – acoustic bass (and inspiration on “I’m Looking Through You”) Emmylou Harris – vocals on “Nothin’ Without You” and “The Rivers of Babylon” I remember holdin’ on to you All them long and lonely nights I put you through Somewhere in there I’m sure I made you cry But I can’t remember if we said goodbye. But I recall all of them nights down in Mexico One place I may never go in my life again Was I just off somewhere just too high But I can’t remember if we said goodbye.
