a homecoming of sorts...coming home isn't always a homecoming...

some people get by with a little understanding, some people get by with a whole lot more..

Think back to when Bon Scott played his last gig with AC/DC (it’s actually this day 27.01) back in 1980 before he would succumb to an untimely death due to misadventure and remember how the world seemed less complicated and more focussed on serious issues as opposed to Tik Tok or Instagram and if we don't think we've lost something we're crazy...but if we think it's coming back anytime soon then we are complete fools. Michael Keaton in a scene from 'Birdman' is here due to his brilliant acting abilities as well as the late great John Belushi...dig Mike & John, supreme talents for sure! can you still recall in the juke box hall when the music played and the world spun round to a brand new sound in those far off days.. in their blue suede shoes they would scream and shout as they sang the blues, let it all hang out.. rock and roll...

Story behind the song

songs tell stories and stories can make for good songs and the world will spin on it's axis until it doesn't...

Lyrics

And what I felt
Comin’ back to say I’m sorry
I couldn’t be...any more than when I left
But you know there were things not said
...and things that I can never forget

You don’t have to be that one
Who knows that they’ve done wrong

You don’t have to be that one

You don’t have to be
You don’t have to be the one
That stands in the doorway of hell
Tryin’ to buy and sell
Your way back to me
(good-bye)

You don’t have to be the one
Who changes their mind from day to day
Only to say goodbye, goodbye
Only to say goodbye

But don’t you know
That when you leave, you don’t have to go
But don’t you know
That when you leave, you don’t have to go
Oh yeah

Don’t you know?
...but you don’t know...

You've captured the melancholy emotions very well in this song. Wistful melody & vocals with a great piano accompaniment. I think it comes across more powerfully because you weren't tempted to over-produce or add too many instruments. Subtle, yet reaches out & conveys the feelings.
