[Verse 1]
We it's time for me to step out on the road
And only Lord knows where its gonna go
But it'll be okay
I packed up my bags last night
Had to tell my momma goodbye
Tears rolled down her face as I backed out the drive
But goodbyes are never forever
We'll eventually say hello
Even if that days in heaven
You'll never be alone
[Chorus]
‘Cuz I'll hold you close
Everywhere I go
Nine months never seemed so long
And even though I have tears in my eyes
This ain't goodbye
But I'm gonna miss you
[Verse 2]
I can't wait till the next time I say hello
Counting down the days till I come home
But it'll be okay
Time pa**es by way to slow
When you're so many miles from home
Well there's one thought on my mind that I hold close
That goodbyes are never forever
We'll eventually say hello
Even if that days in heaven
You'll never be alone
[Chorus]
Cuz I'll hold you close
Everywhere I go
Nine months never seemed so long
And even though I have tears in my eyes
This ain't goodbye
But I'm gonna miss you
[Outro]
I'm gonna miss you
On them Sundays
Back porch rockin'
Oh the holidays
Mom and Dad
And cookouts and BBQs
Don't you know I'm gonna miss you
I can't wait to come home
I love the grace of the summer days
Out in the pool
Dog in the yard
Lord I want to come home soon
Just know that I miss you
Know that I miss you
Know that I miss you
Know that I miss you
But this ain't goodbye
