I left my dear trying to find adventure She spent years trading my whiskey out for seltzer Still I hear her voice in the pit of my failure I ride alone down Goodbye Road I kept my eyes tryna find better weather Just to find it ain't getting any better And still I hear her voice so clear and so tender It's my tale to tell down Goodbye Road Strangers, outcasts, artists and thieves Misfits, legends and lost refugees We may not be where we thought we would be We made our home down Goodbye Road You said you were my queen Now you're just an old disaster I said sticks and stones shouldn't be thrown from the pulpit pastor And when I hear that voice I try to move a bit faster I'd rather walk alone down Goodbye Road Strangers, outcasts, artists and thieves Misfits, legends and lost refugees We may not be where we thought we would be We made our home down Goodbye Road Travelin' Paul on the road to Damascus The ghost of Saul, he laid down in a casket Sometimes flowers grow in the soil of ashes Pick 'em as you go down Goodbye Road Strangers, outcasts, artists and thieves Misfits, legends and lost refugees We may not be where we thought we would be Oh, we made our home down Goodbye Road Sometimes flowers grow in the soil of ashes Pick 'em as you go down Goodbye Road We made our home down Goodbye Road
Seen the guys in concert recently and let me tell you it is the greatest ever but penny and sparrow are hilarious!! True comedians with great voices esp Andy, he is amazing. Truly the best open ever! Much love from augusta ga love you guys
Verse 1: Drew Holcomb] I left my dear trying to find adventure She spent years trading my whiskey out for seltzer Still I hear her voice in the pit of my failure I ride alone down Goodbye Road I kept my eyes trying to find better weather Just to find it ain't getting any better And still I hear her voice so clear and so tender It's my tale to tell down Goodbye Road [Chorus: Drew Holcomb] Strangers, outcasts, artists and thieves Misfits, legends and lost refugees We may not be where we thought we would be We made our home down Goodbye Road [Verse 2: Ellie Holcomb] You said you were my queen Now you're just an old disaster I said sticks and stones shouldn't be thrown from the pulpit pastor And when I hear that voice I try to move a bit faster I'd rather walk alone down Goodbye Road [Chorus: Ellie Holcomb] Strangers, outcasts, artists and thieves Misfits, legends and lost refugees We may not be where we thought we would be We made our home down Goodbye Road [Bridge: Johnnyswim] Travelin' Paul on the road to Damascus The ghost of Saul, he laid down in a casket Sometimes flowers grow in the soil of ashes Pick 'em as you go down Goodbye Road [Chorus] Strangers, outcasts, artists and thieves Misfits, legends and lost refugees We may not be where we thought we would be Go raid our home down Goodbye Road [Outro] Sometimes flowers grow in the soil of ashes Pick 'em as you go down Goodbye Road We made our home down Goodbye Road
It’s about making the right choice in leaving a relationship that isn’t working behind. We tried. We didn’t make it. Flowers will grow in the soil of letting go on goodbye road. The traveling Paul and Amazing Grace bit hints at a conversion/resurrection on this journey. Something like that?
People end up as outcasts for different reasons. Self-inflicted or, more tragically, shunned by society. In the beginning of the song, the lyrics suggests greener pastures aren't all that. If you seek a better life, adventure, saying goodbye to those closest to you, those that love you the most, make Goodbye Road home as best you can. It's all there is. "I ride alone on Goodbye Road....Trying to find better weather just to find it isn't getting any better. Still I hear her voice....." "Sometimes flowers grow on the soil of ashes. Pick them as you go, down Goodbye Road." "We made our home down Goodbye Road." Later in the song they mention a judgmental pastor preaching from a pulpit condemning poor choices instead of helping them find healing. The singer prefers Goodbye Road to that kind of preaching ...So, some are shunned ending up on Goodbye Road for the wrong reasons. If you are shunned, find love where you can. God is still there, on Goodbye Road. Paul found God on the road to Damascus. He laid down his past life as Saul into a casket. Truly a beautifully sung spiritual song of forgiving, love, the permanence of love, and hope. I wish I could have seen them in Oakland. Just to hear this song.
This song touches all the people who have experienced the mix of love and joy, loss and sorrow in the long journey we call life.
This jumped out of the speakers on my morning drive to work. Grabbed my heart and won't let go. Well written and well delivered. Thank you.
Man, this song is beautiful. It's a song that sits on repeat.
Every person should listen to this.
Masterpiece.
Full, of so much beauty, wisdom & compassion.
We must come together, not apart.
Blessings, love & peace.
Love it!! Every time it plays in my office on the radio satellite no one is allowed to talk until the song is over haha
I left my dear trying to find adventure
She spent years trading my whiskey out for seltzer
Still I hear her voice in the pit of my failure
I ride alone down Goodbye Road
I kept my eyes tryna find better weather
Just to find it ain't getting any better
And still I hear her voice so clear and so tender
It's my tale to tell down Goodbye Road
Strangers, outcasts, artists and thieves
Misfits, legends and lost refugees
We may not be where we thought we would be
We made our home down Goodbye Road
You said you were my queen
Now you're just an old disaster
I said sticks and stones shouldn't be thrown from the pulpit pastor
And when I hear that voice I try to move a bit faster
I'd rather walk alone down Goodbye Road
Strangers, outcasts, artists and thieves
Misfits, legends and lost refugees
We may not be where we thought we would be
We made our home down Goodbye Road
Travelin' Paul on the road to Damascus
The ghost of Saul, he laid down in a casket
Sometimes flowers grow in the soil of ashes
Pick 'em as you go down Goodbye Road
Strangers, outcasts, artists and thieves
Misfits, legends and lost refugees
We may not be where we thought we would be
Oh, we made our home down Goodbye Road
Sometimes flowers grow in the soil of ashes
Pick 'em as you go down Goodbye Road
We made our home down Goodbye Road

We're driving 365 miles to see their closest show in August.
This doesn’t do justice as live, they are amazing
Zack Snyder never fails, neither in his movies nor his music taste
Amazing song! Gonna try and check you out in Minneapolis this fall. Thanks for the great tune, also going to cover this song with bandmates!!
