Here's a song I wrote about my high school sweetheart but we used to fight a lot....so this song just popped out...

I played the lead acoustic guitar and bass and sang lead and harmony. Everything else was Realband 2014
Goodbye My Friend
By Horst Hartung 1972
Well It’s six three long years, we’ve been together
It won’t be easy to say goodbye
But all we do is yell and fight, I know you, it ain’t right
I think it’s time for me to go
Before I go I’d like to tell you, I’m not mad at you
And I’d like to say, I think I’m gonna miss you
And although our love has gone, I’d still like to see you
I don’t want to lose you as a friend, I don’t want to lose you
You know you make it hard, and I, I think you know
Oooh, I’d like to stay, but it ain’t gonna work out
And the soft spot in my heart, it’s telling me to stay
I think you know as I, I have to go
So Goodbye my friend, I have to leave you, although I wanna stay
And my broken heart cries, I sure don’t want to leave you
And I’ll wipe that tear from my eye, It’s time to say goodbye
I don’t want to lose you as a friend, I don’t want to lose you
I don’t want to lose you as a friend
Lead:
Before I go I’d like to tell you, I’m not mad at you
And I’d like to say, I think I’m gonna miss you
And although our love has gone, I’d still like to see you
I don’t want to lose you as a friend, I don’t want to lose you
I don’t want to lose you as a friend
As I turn toward the door, close it behind me
Ooooh I realize, what I have done
And though the pain, it hurts me so, walking away slow
Leaving behind me, a cold and empty soul
So Goodbye my friend, I have to leave you, although I wanna stay
And my broken heart cries, I sure don’t want to leave you
And I’ll wipe that tear from my eye, It’s time to say goodbye
I don’t want to lose you as a friend, I don’t want to lose you
I don’t want to lose you as a friend
