 x2
I  got a friend  he lives down  in old Albuquerque
We  used to watch  the sun coming  up together
But  he was hungry  then and  he got restless
I  heard he took  a wife, I think  her name is Heather
All  of a sudden  I'm driving  in the rain
With  the Santa Fe horizon calling  out my name
Should  have done it sooner, now  I know it's time
 Cause we said  a lot of things,  but we never  said goodbye
We  were a team, we  were the best  of friends
We  had a world  were no-one  else could find  us
The  summer passed, September came  too soon
And suddenly  that world  was all behind  us
Driving through  the night with nothing  on my mind
But  the thought  of catching up with a ghost  I left behind
Don't  know what  I'll do but I know  I've got to try
 Cause we said  a lot of things,  but we never  said goodbye
 x4
I  drove 1000  miles chasing  a memory
But  all the  pieces of what used  to be have shattered
And  all the  little things that  used to mean  so much
I  look around  me now and see  that they don't matter
All  of a sudden  I'm driving  home again
Cause sometimes  goodbye is better  left unsaid
The  Santa Fe horizon  will know  the reason why
 I said  a lot of things  to you, but  I never said goodbye
