A sad farewell

chelsea and i said our last goodbyes to rhett a few days ago. my friend and bandmate has moved on to the big city. he moved to southern california for a new start. we are sad to see him go. schmaltzy is sad because schmaltzy doesn't exist anymore. rhett and i had a beautiful relationship, he wrote great songs and i sang them. i have been listening to our music for the past two days, mourning the loss. i know he hasn't died, but he doesn't live around the corner from me anymore. he makes great steak and mashed potatoes, also a really mean breakfast burrito. he makes great soundtrack music (see my miss emily video) he does a great angel voice (see the goddess barbie video) he is really funny and witty, and has a way of making everyone like him. i miss him already...at least we still have facebook, whaaa.i will close my rhett tribute with the last lyrics he wrote:

i try to say these things to you
but they never end up coming true
what a lost cause
what a long pause

but the public has a different view
so i'll try to hold on to something new
and have my own way
it will be ok

chorus:
i've been longing for some time
to clear the past out of my mind
if only i wasn't so lonely

i'd recognize what's going on
and i'd stop staying up til dawn
if only i wasn't so lonely

2nd verse:
if all these things you say are true
then what am i supposed to do?
sit alone, waiting by the phone

i won't get broken up inside
not even if you decide to go your own way
it will be ok

2nd chorus:
i've been longing for some time
to clear the past out of my mind
if only i wasn't so lonely

i'd recognize what's going on
and i'd stop staying up til dawn
if only i wasn't long gone
