about

Learn to love before you say goodbye

lyrics

I'm driving clear across the state of Georgia
My mind running wild
To pay my respects
To a lady I've never met
I'm headed to Savannah again

Love is sure to come your way
But you can't sit back and let it pass you by
Every gleaming sunset fades
So learn to love before you say goodbye

Been playing phone tag with my brother in New Orleans
We haven't spoken in a while
Sometime he won't answer
But mostly I don't call
And that's the hardest part of all

I see red and white azaleas in the sunlight
And I swear there's more to them than meets the eye
Cuz their colors all but disappear come midnight
So learn to love before you say goodbye

I never said that I was good at this
I never said that I was

I see a couple holding hands and walking slowly
Under a canopy of oaks and Spanish moss
Through the steamy Sunday morning air
And I can't help but stare

Precious moments find you if you're patient
They'll flutter down just like a butterfly
And settle on your shoulder for one sweet moment
So learn to love before you say goodbye

Don't wait til it's too late
So learn to love before you say goodbye
