Topic: New Original: How Can I Forget You

It's been a real long time since I had the time to write and record anything.
It's also been a while since I had any desire to pick up my guitar.
Yesterday the wife and kids went to a movie so I decided to take the quiet 2 hours and record a song I had written recently but just could not muster the desire or proper time to record.
Had to get this one off my chest after all these years. Song is about my attempt to Love a substance abuser 3 decades ago. Thought I could save her and show her a better life......Beautiful gal but damaged beyond repair.....

Re: New Original: How Can I Forget You

Very cool -  I had a similar experience in attempted soul saving - didn't work either.  I am amazed at your guitar skills for not having played for a while.  Maybe I should stop for a while and I would improve to that level ! smile   Anyway - very  very nice

A beautiful song bud.  Nothing like hard feelings to bring about a great song.

I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.
