about

I wrote this in the wee hours of March 1, just before the February Album Wring Month closed to new entries for the year. Just one more dance before they turned the lights off.

lyrics

Fare Thee Well
Music and Lyrics: © Sean McGaughey Feb29, 2019 FAWMcloser #22
Key of A Waltz

A line of cabs awaits outside the hall
We've had our last dance and last call
The final chords of the band have given way
To a chorus of small talk as we try to delay

It's not a last goodbye, but fare thee well
Save me a dance at next year's soiree
We have old friends, new friends, some great memories.
And treasury of new songs to play

Farewell to old friends, new friends,
I have sweet memories
and a treasury of new songs to play.
