A Good Day For Goodbye (with Matt Hicks & Iain Glencross)

from The Lighthouse by Andydan

/

about

I tried to write in the style of Jimmy Webb (Galveston,McArthur Park)
from the aspect of an empty house longing to be filled with love& laughter.

lyrics

This house is a home
To no one that's left inside
The T.V.'s on , But there's no one home.....

The cracked empty frame
It's usefulness long expired
But once It held , A Fantasy dispelled...
A snapshot to another life.... That's not mine

Chorus
You said the words running around my mind
Those hurtful things, that sorrow can bring,
Empty promises

You said it all , feels like your calling time
No act of revenge , no chance to amend
so tell me why?

It's a good day for goodbye?
It's not a good day for goodbye

Remembering when the days were warm and kind
The unmade bed ,
where hours we used to spend

The phone on the wall
The caller refused to tire
But there's no one home
to answer all those calls
Let it ring a long,long,time....... let it ring

Chorus

You set the words running around my mind
Those hurtful things, that sorrow can bring,
Broken promises

You said it all , feels like your calling time
No act of revenge , no chance to amend
so tell me why?

It's a good day for goodbye?
Tell me why?
It's not a good day for goodbye.
