Say Goodbye Before You Leave
Liner Notes
A short song about stepping out of your comfort zone and the fear that comes with that.
Lyrics
At the start of the journey The path may seem long By the end of the journey You'll look back and you'll feel strong
At the start of the journey You'll feel small and alone By the end of the journey You'll have friends all of your own
Saddle up before you venture Say goodbye before you leave Put your head in a hardy helmet And wear your heart upon your sleeve
At the start of my journey I didn't want to depart At the end of the journey I had courage and heart
At the start of my journey The world seemed so small Now it's bigger than ever And I'm heeding the call
Saddle up before you venture Say goodbye before you leave Put your head in a hardy helmet And wear your heart upon your sleeve
Saddle up before you venture Say goodbye before you leave Put your head in a hardy helmet And wear your heart upon your sleeve

This song suits very well to the start of FAWM, lyrics were very relatable. Some great rhymes there too, especially liked the world seemed so small -verse.

Same comment as below, but I Really like the chorus on this..
Very odd! I just tried responding it, this time straight from my phone. Hope that sorts it out.

Hey there! So I tried to play your tune and well.....nothing happened....just a spinning cassette deck....no timer...no sound...nothing. I just wanted to let ya know so you could maybe try and re-upload it? Blessings!
Hi Mark! I've sent this link to others who have managed to play it. Perhaps try again later and it might work? Peace and love x
Tried again just now and....nothing. From what I can see it looks like a direct upload and not a link? Not sure what's going on, but just wanted ya to know....
I appreciate you telling me. I sent it to my husband and he was able to listen to it. Have you tried on another device?
No, I have not, but interestingly I have no trouble playing your other tune "Grobbledygrok" from this device and it shows a runtime of 3:03 I think whereas this one has a runtime of 0:00 so seems like an issue on the FAWM end? Hope it gets figured out. Just didn't want ya to think you were being ignored and still a zonk. Blessings!
I just tried responding it from a different device. Does that help at all?
No, still doesn’t play any audio and still shows a runtime of 0:00.

playing fine for me - and really enjoyed the song! the jaunty shuffle strumming pattern gives the song a good pace. Love the sentiment in wearing your heart on your sleeve, i think a lot of people are scared to do that these days so its a great reminder!
