Goodbye Song

This is a song to which Di and I wrote the lyric last summer, just before she became so sick. I just found the time to put it to music and record it yesterday. Let me know what you think. I dropped the vocal back a wee bit in the mix since posting the song.

I've been pretty scarce on the forum the past few month due to Di's illness and some health issues that popped up for me recently. I'm scheduled for eye surgery at the end of the month. I will visit the great artists on these boards as I can. And thanks to everyone who commented on my last post. I simply didn't have time to reply to everyone who left a comment. But, I'll persevere as i can. Thanks! Best to everyone ...

Alan

Goodbye Song
(c) 2019 Alan D. David, BMI / Diana Randall, BMI

(v1)
The journey was good, I'll never forget
The memories we etched in our hearts
We traveled near and we traveled far
Sometimes to unkown parts

Then we came to a fork in the road
And the truth stared us square in the face
You chose left and I chose right
Each seeking a different place


CHORUS
We tried our best but somewhere it went wrong
Your ping didn’t like my pong
Your ying and my yang just couldn’t get along
Now we're singing our goodbye song


INSTRUMENTAL VERSE


CHORUS
We tried our best but somewhere it went wrong
Your ping didn’t like my pong
Your ying and my yang just couldn’t get along
Now we're singing our goodbye song


(v2)
We came to fences that we couldn’t mend
So we jumped them and went our own ways
I'm still not sure where it all went wrong
I'm confused as I sort through the haze

You were a Pepsi and I was a Coke
Somehow we both lost our fizz
No hard feelings no axes to grind
As they say it is what it is

REPEAT CHORUS x2
