This song is about my Father. I had great respect for Dad - a man of the "old school". He died suddenly and without any warning at home. I never got the chance to say good-bye.

Good-bye Maxwell James
I wonder what was on your mind
When your breathing came to cease
I’m hoping that your thoughts were kind
I like to think you rest in peace
I would’ve liked to said good-bye
Shook your hand, shared a meal
We spoke one day and then you died
Might have been quick, wasn’t ideal
Good-bye Maxwell James
My father you’d be
You taught me how to see
I’m happy that you lived a life
Without doubting anything
And in our Mum you had a wife
With a heart that made birds sing
Good-bye Maxwell James
My father you’d be
You taught me how to see
And through your son and daughter you live on.
I wonder if you had regrets
When your breathing came to cease
I hope that dying let’s us forget
So we can all just rest in peace
Good-bye Maxwell James
