Stephen Got in touch to see if i could add a lyric to his track Goodbye Vacation so as i was in the mood this evening after the 3 glasses of wine i've given it a go ....Hope you like it Stephen ......Heres the original without the waffle https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=31399.0  Thanks Stephen
This is goodbye to the friends I have met along the way
Drifting through the creeks and mountains
I have to say
I've never felt so alive
I never felt God so close to my side
As I view this world through these blue eyes

The days of bliss have gone now I've got to go
Its time for me to go back to the world I know
I can not say in this dream world at platy
Its time for me to go to go to go back to where I've come from

I don't want to turn my life back, on this peaceful life
And Go back to the trouble that causes this strife
I don't know what to do
But I have no choice
I've got to leave you
my paradise
I've got to go
Tonight s my last night to stare up at the stars
Tonight s my last night to be at peace with mars
Tonight s my last night I've got to leave you now my paradise
Tonight s my last night I've got to go
I've got to go
Back to the world the world that I know
Goodbye sweet paradise
Goodbye Sweet paradise
Goodbye sweet paradise

Excellent Trev and Stephen.
The lyrics remind me of the last night on holiday in spain,sitting on the balcony thinking about going back to work .
The prospect of retirement is playing heavy on my mind at the moment.
Cool collab you guys.

I liked Stephen's instrumental, but with your vocals this became to a soulful rock ballad! Excellent job, gents!

Chaps this is a great collab. I was pretty sure this was Stephens guitar playing/music shortly after this started. The music has that free spirited feel that he gets in a lot of his stuff. Fantastic. And Trevor you couldn't have done any better with the vocal melody and lyrics. A great collab for sure.

I am working on a new mix of this hopefully with Ken's drums.... and it is going to take me quite a while to mix as I really want to do the vocals everything they deserve with the music... so it might be a month or so before I ever post it...and I will send it to those involved as well before hand...thanks for doing this Reg....

Great song and these two lines hit me.  I like it because it may be "men are from mars women are from venus" or it might just be something a whole lot more mystical.

Great lyrics, and a great overall song.

Great collab guys, love Trev's vocals and Stephen's playing is fantastic. Reminds me of many last nights of a holiday, leaving a beautiful place behind knowing you face another year of the daily grind before you get to do it again.
