A break up song about a final and uneventful good bye.

I sang the vocals and Gavin lent me "The Mysterious Beings" Band

JUST ANOTHER ERRAND
A break-up song about a final uneventful final goodbye.
(a re-write from years ago)

My first attempt to do a song by myself using software and a rhythm guitar. I ended up taking my guitar out of the mix.
There are some rough spots in the mix. Comments welcome.

LYRICS
V1
Looked out my window, saw you opening my gate
Coming up my walk, like its just another day.
I open the door, you smile and then you say
I came here for what's left then I'll be on my way.

Just another errand, Just another day

V2
I tossed my head back, stepped back from the door.
Glanced into the house, said "take whatever's yours."
As you walked by, I smelled the fragrance in your hair.
It reminded me of nights, lying close in our bed.

Just another errand, Just another day

V3
I guess to break the silence, you ask me how I've been.
As if I'm some acquaintance who used to be a friend
The distance in your words dropped like dead leaves in fall..
If I can't say I love you, I don't want to talk at all

CH
I'm just another errand on just another day
Just another loose end, tied off and tucked away.
Just another errand, a detail gone astray
Soon to be a memory, soon to fade away

V4
I lay back on the sofa, pretend to watch TV.
You call out from my front door, "I got everything I need.
The door closes softly on this chapter in our lives
On a love I would have cherished until the end of time.

CH
