Favorite Hello Lyrics

There’s a pillow on the bed where you laid your head every night for 13 years
Young and wild, an only child, one half of a package deal
Packed you up, moved you out, and brought you both back home
Never knew the hole you’d leave until the moment you were gone

Ain’t a day goes by that I don’t think about you
Ain’t a day goes by that you ain’t on my mind
You were the goodest boy a man could ever ask for
My favorite hello is my hardest goodbye

We roamed around town to town, for years it was just us three
I hope I brought you half the joy that you brought to me
Sometimes at night, a sound, a sight, a smell is all it takes
To me remind me that your only fault was the fact you couldn’t stay

Ain’t a day goes by that I don’t think about you
Ain’t a day goes by that you ain’t on my mind
You were the goodest boy a man could ever ask for
My favorite hello is my hardest goodbye

If I could grant myself one wish, I’d ask for a little more time
‘Cause loving you your whole life means missing you the rest of mine

Ain’t a day goes by that I don’t think about you
Ain’t a day goes by that you ain’t on my mind
You were the goodest boy a man could ever ask for
My favorite hello was my hardest goodbye
