#Happy separation day!
[Warm Rhodes piano chords play softly. A simple, slow drum beat comes in with a deep, smooth bass guitar.] Verse 1: Woke up in this quiet room, the sun feels kind of new Like I don't know the light, or why the seasons changed for you. This should be our special day, a day we always knew. But the room is full of quiet, a quiet not from me, it's true. Still, I can almost see us then, laughing till the morning light, Playin' records, talkin' dreams, before things got so hard and tight. (Pre-Chorus) And the date today is clear, yes, it's still that special day. But I feel a little lost inside, I don't know what to feel or say. So I'm sending out this feeling, like a whisper in the air, I guess, Some happy, some sad words, from this feeling of deep upset... Chorus: [Sung softly, with a lot of feeling, and a clearer rhyming flow] Happy Separation Day, dear, though it hurts these words to say. My heart feels kinda lost, just hoping you're okay today. Happy Anniversary, love, though we're living far apart. I know you've made your choice, it's a feeling in my heart. I wish you all the best, may your day be warm and bright, And pray we both find quiet peace, through morning, noon, and night. Verse 2: My mind replays the good times, like sunlight in a dream, The happy little world we built, or so it used to seem. But this day brings a sharp sting, a truth I can't ignore, That door is closed between us now, you don't walk with me no more. These sweet old thoughts keep spinning, a comfort and a pain, While this empty feeling deep inside, just washes through like rain. (Pre-Chorus) And the date today is clear, yes, it's still that special day. But I feel a little lost inside, I don't know what to feel or say. So I'm sending out this feeling, like a whisper in the air, I guess, Some happy, some sad words, from this feeling of deep upset... Chorus: (Sung softly, with a lot of feeling, and a clearer rhyming flow) Happy Separation Day, dear, though it hurts these words to say. My heart feels kinda lost, just hoping you're okay today. Happy Anniversary, love, though we're living far apart. I know you've made your choice, it's a feeling in my heart. I wish you all the best, may your day be warm and bright, And pray we both find quiet peace, through morning, noon, and night. Bridge: (Music gets quieter, just Rhodes and soft bass) And there's nothing I can do, no magic words to say. You've made your choice, dear, and gone your own way. But this day still feels important, like a memory so clear, So I send this out anyway, for you, and maybe for me, my dear. Today and always, yes, I'll always care a lot for you. Yes, I will. (A sad but sweet saxophone plays a simple, pretty tune, full of feeling.) Chorus: [Sung with a quiet strength, accepting it, with the clearer rhyming flow] Happy Separation Day, dear, though it hurts these words to say. My heart feels kinda lost, just hoping you're okay today. Happy Anniversary, love, though we're living far apart. I know you've made your choice, it's a feeling in my heart. I wish you all the best, may your day be warm and bright, And pray we both find quiet peace, through morning, noon, and night. Outro: [Music fades very slowly, voice is like a soft thought] Yeah... Happy Separation Day... if that's okay to say... Don't know where I am sometimes... but I know this day... Anniversary... you chose your way... I understand... I do... Still hope you find peace... always... (Rhodes chords fade out with the bass.)
