    Lyrics:
                                                      
    Oh what a shame to see the way he treated her She nearly lost her mind tryin’ to keep her faith She got tired of fearin’ him, and oh so tired of givin’ in And everyday she stayed she knew was a mistake So she packed light for a one-way ride on a Greyhound Looked around the house and sighed one last time There wasn't much left to say, she knew he wouldn’t listen anyway So she left a message by the phone with just one line She broke the spell that she’d been under Found her wings and she was gonna fly The note said I’ve got your number and underlined here’s mine You can reach me at 1-800-Goodbye He was primed to fight that night when he hit the doorway Smelled of motel love and whiskey on his breath Yelled her name and slammed the door, but he can’t hurt her anymore She was miles away when he read the note she’d left She broke the spell that she’d been under Found her wings and she was gonna fly The note said I’ve got your number and underlined here’s mine You can reach me at 1-800-Goodbye She had no where to go, but off that dead-end road She was lookin’ for a place where she could heal... The scars on her heart, cause he’d gone too far She prayed he’d change but she knew he never will She broke the spell that she’d been under Found her wings and she was gonna fly The note said I’ve got your number and underlined here’s mine You can reach me at 1-800-Goodbye The note said I’ve got your number and underlined here’s mine You can reach me at 1-800-Goodbye
