[Verse 1]
Goodbye to you
My trusted friend
We knew each story
Every bend
We raced our bikes
On gravel roads
Shared every secret
We never told
You held my hand
Through stupid dares
We patched each other
With crooked prayers
[Chorus]
So goodbye
Goodbye
My oldest friend
Every summer had to end
We were brave
We were just pretending
World was small
Hearts were wide
Now the map pulls us to different sides
Still I carry you
Back when we were nine
[Verse 2]
Your brother's car
That midnight ride
We swore our names
Would never hide
You called me up
When your dad left
We sat in silence
Out of breath
We carved our plans
In wet cement
Thought it meant always
Where it meant
[Chorus]
So goodbye
Goodbye
My oldest friend
Every summer had to end
We were brave
We were just pretending
World was small
Hearts were wide
Now the map pulls us to different sides
Still I carry you
Back when we were nine
[Bridge]
If you hear my name
In some quiet town (oh)
Know I'm still that kid
Who won't let you down
[Chorus]
So goodbye
Goodbye
My oldest friend
Every summer had to end
We were brave
We were just pretending
World was small
Hearts were wide
Now the map pulls us to different sides
Still I carry you
Back when we were nine
Goodbye to you
My trusted friend
We knew each story
Every bend
We raced our bikes
On gravel roads
Shared every secret
We never told
You held my hand
Through stupid dares
We patched each other
With crooked prayers
[Chorus]
So goodbye
Goodbye
My oldest friend
Every summer had to end
We were brave
We were just pretending
World was small
Hearts were wide
Now the map pulls us to different sides
Still I carry you
Back when we were nine
[Verse 2]
Your brother's car
That midnight ride
We swore our names
Would never hide
You called me up
When your dad left
We sat in silence
Out of breath
We carved our plans
In wet cement
Thought it meant always
Where it meant
[Chorus]
So goodbye
Goodbye
My oldest friend
Every summer had to end
We were brave
We were just pretending
World was small
Hearts were wide
Now the map pulls us to different sides
Still I carry you
Back when we were nine
[Bridge]
If you hear my name
In some quiet town (oh)
Know I'm still that kid
Who won't let you down
[Chorus]
So goodbye
Goodbye
My oldest friend
Every summer had to end
We were brave
We were just pretending
World was small
Hearts were wide
Now the map pulls us to different sides
Still I carry you
Back when we were nine
Styl muzyki
Acoustic pop ballad, male vocals. Gentle fingerpicked guitar with warm room reverb, soft electric piano pads underneath. First verse intimate and hushed; chorus widens with subtle harmony stack and a round, woody kick. Second verse strips back again, then a final chorus climbs with a lifted key change, tambourine accents, and a held vocal ad-lib on the last hook.
