I Don't Know How To Say Goodbye - SAW 2010 -41

 This summer I attended my high school reunion and last week was the end of the 50 songs in 90 days songwriting challenge. This was written for two groups of people who, with a few exceptions, I generally only communicate with in a sporadic or infrequent manner.

This song was written 10 days ago. All of the other songs to this point were written within 7 (and a half) days of the post date, but I've had a case of bronchitis this week so singing is out and I decided not to post an instrumental.

Time:
0:00
Volume:

Goodbye, all of you
Glad you came around
Don't know where you're headed now
Where you can be found

I'm so glad you came around today
Won't you come around again
I don't know how to say goodbye

So long and fare thee well
turn out all the lights
Dawn turns into dusk again
And fades into the night

I'm so glad you came around today
Won't you come around again
I don't know how to say goodbye

41! Very cool!

I think the verses fit well with the music on this one.

This is quite touching, actually. "Goodbye" is never easy.  :P

Well done on this.  :)

Honour the earth. Without it, we'd be nowhere.

Life is too important to take seriously.

You are Neil Young, confess! :D

Very pretty songwriting, right up my alley.

T.C. , you always remind me of Jack Blades, the style, the singing, the chord changes. Beautiful song, a very enjoyable listen.
