Life with the WAGS

Goodbye

A week later, I am back in the states and off to Detroit. I'm off the plane and I look around. I look at the entrance to Ford Field and breathe in. As I walk around the field, I see a football on a tee Miles Killabrew, the kicker is practicing for an away game at Arrowhead Stadium. Great the Lions are playing the Chiefs! I text Rob.
Text Conversation:
Rob, did you know the Lions are playing the Chiefs?
I did. You in Detroit?
I needed to be in Detroit to interview the team.
Just remember to tell the team you're going to the game with them.
I will.
I have to go. 🤗
Bye! 🤗
As my conversation with Rob ends, I hear a song that reminds me of Travis.
I can honestly say
You've been on my mind
Since I woke up today
I look at your photograph all the time
These memories come back to life
And I don't mind
I remember when we kissed
I still feel it on my lips
The time that you danced with me
With no music playing
I remember the simple things
I remember till I cry
But the one thing I wish I'd forget
The memory I wanna forget
Is goodbye
I woke up this morning
And played our song
And through my tears I sang along
I picked up the phone and then
Put it down
'cause I know I'm wasting my time
And I don't mind
I remember when we kissed
I still feel it on my lips
The time that you danced with me
With no music playing
I remember the simple things
I remember till I cry
But the one thing I wish I'd forget
The memory I wanna forget
Suddenly my cell phone's blowing up
With your ring tone
I hesitate but answer it anyway
You sound so alone
And I'm surprised to hear you say
You remember when we kissed
You still feel it on your lips
The time that you danced with me
With no music playing
You remember the simple things
We talk till we cry
You said that your biggest regret
The one thing you wish I'd forget
Is saying goodbye
Saying goodbye
Oh, Goodbye
I'm at a bar and I see a microphone and I sing a song.
Here's to the ones that we got
Cheers to the wish you were here but you're not
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
Of everything we've been through
Toast to the ones here today
Toast to the ones that we lost on the way
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
And the memories bring back
Memories bring back you
I see the bartender smiling.
There's a time that I remember when I did not know no pain
When I believed in forever
And everything would stay the same
Now my heart feel like December
When somebody say your name
'Cause I can't reach out to call you
But I know I will one day
Hey
Everybody hurts sometimes, everybody hurts someday
Eh eh
Everything will be alright, go on raise a glass and say
Eh
Here's to the ones that we got
Cheers to the wish you were here but you're not
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
Of everything we've been through
Toast to the ones here today
Toast to the ones that we lost on the way
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
And the memories bring back
Memories bring back you
Doo do do doo
Memories bring back
Memories bring back you
I close my eyes and I picture myself at Arrowhead  
There's a time that I remember when I never felt so lost
When I felt that all the hatred was too powerful to stop
Now my heart feel like an ember
And its lighting up the dark
I'll carry these torches for ya
That you know I'll never drop
Yeah
Everybody hurts sometimes, everybody hurts someday
Eh eh
Everything goin be alright, go on raise a glass and say
Eh
Here's to the ones that we got
Cheers to the wish you were here but you're not
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
Of everything we've been through
Toast to the ones here today
Toast to the ones that we lost on the way
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
And the memories bring back
Memories bring back you
Doo do do doo
Memories bring back
Memories bring back you
Doo do do doo
Memories bring back
Memories bring back you
Yeah yeah yeah
Memories bring back
Memories bring back you
I open my eyes and I smile knowing I have a trip to make.
