Hi, all:

Christian passed this instrumental track my way and asked me to do my best to put some lyrics to it. Well, I did . . . but it became apparent after my first vocal take that the song was in slightly too high of a key. And here’s where Christian really stepped up . . . taking the instrumental track he created virtually in final form, but then redoing it entirely in a lower key. In doing so, he went from what was largely an acoustic guitar track to a more piano centered tune . . . but it think and hope it worked out even for the better.

So, here’s the final . . . music by Christian, words and vocal by yours truly. Thanks in advance for the listen and feedback.

Hope everyone is safe and well,

Deej

Here’s the song:

SHE'S GONE FOREVER

Here are the lyrics:

She’s gone forever
Packed up her broken dreams
Split this scene in search of better skies

She’s gone forever
Headed back to New Orleans
As far away from me as she can fly

The more you try to stay together
The more it hurts to say goodbye

She’s gone forever
Took her laugh and her pretty smiles
Down the road a thousand miles away

She’s gone forever
Funny, man, how all this while
I’m still hanging on to the hope that she might stay

She’s gone forever
And I know
It ain’t never gonna change

Come whatever
Yeah, I’ll find the sun again
But I’ll always feel the rain
