AdiĆ³s
Kyle Bennett Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

At a very young age of only fourteen when I felt that feelin' inside
Knew right then you were the one for me, the moment you looked in my eyes
Well I kissed your lips and I held your hand
Took me for a hell of a ride
Guess I didn't know love back then
You're my adios, baby, goodbye

You're my adios, baby, goodbye
And I'm all broke down inside
Love ain't on my side this time
You're my adios, baby, goodbye

Let few years roll on by before I finally saw you again
Told you right then you were the only one I tried to put a ring on your hand
Well the shine wore off of brand new love
You went and up and left me again
Flew out of Dallas with a baby inside and another man's ring on your hand

You're my adios, baby, goodbye
And I'm drinkin' til I see dawn's light
Honey you know what you did ain't right
You're my adios, baby, goodbye

Lyin' alone here in Fort Worth
You know I wish you well
Good luck in Spain with your brand new kid
And tell your husband he can go to hell
Well I know my spanish ain't all that good
Darlin' I can give it a try
There's only one thing left to say
Adios, baby, goodbye

Adios, baby, goodbye




And I'm gettin' on with my life
Don't need you here by my side

Overall Meaning

The Kyle Bennett Band's song Adios is a melancholy narrative of a love that started too early and ended too soon. The lead singer laments about meeting his love when they were just fourteen, and for him, it was love at first sight. Though they had a whirlwind romance, he admits that he didn't fully understand love back then. He addresses his lover as "my adios, baby, goodbye" because their love story has ended and he feels broken inside.


Years later, they crossed paths again, and he proposed to her. The second chance did not last long as the love wavered, and this time she left with a baby in her womb and another man's ring. The lead singer lays bare his wounds, admitting to getting drunk, and being heartbroken that his lover left him again. He wishes her well but acknowledges that they are not meant to be as he says "Adios, baby, goodbye" one last time. The song is an honest and poignant portrayal of lost love, conveying the pain of letting go of something that once meant everything.
