    It's a Western swing type toon. Think Farron Young & Jonny Cash in their youthful prime.

    Story Behind the Song
    It's about my X. When it was time to go it was time to go. Need I say more. It took me all of about half and hour to write this toon. It sort of wrote itself. We really knocked this one out in a matter of hours in the studio.

    Lyrics
    Well I know what I did was right
    Even though it felt so wrong
    It's been a long time comin'
    Since we should have said so long
    I know what I did was right
    Even though it felt so wrong
    So long!

    Chorus:
    So long as you're amusing me
    So long as loving feels empty
    Thatıs how long it takes my friend
    To drive me to my knees again

    When I walked out through that door
    The good Lord knows I cried
    I said I'd be right back
    But now you know I lied
    I know what I did was right
    Even though it felt so wrong
    So long!

    Chorus
    -Break-
    Chorus

    I've been searching lonely nights
    From the bottom of an empty glass
    If I fell on the floor
    Would you notice me at last?
    I know what I did was right
    Even though it felt so wrong
    So long!

    Chorus


    So long as talking is still cheap
    So long as I can keep it clean
    Thatıs how long it takes my friend
    To drag me back around again
    That's how long it takes my friend
    To break me up & down again!
    So long!
