Patty Griffin - Goodbye

[@msophiasantiago7900]

Excellent, PATTY. You always get to me; especially in the cycles of grief ... in our lives. GratefuL for your brilliance! MerCi .

[@josequintana3669]

I bought the CD on a whim at Tower Records, NYC. It is one of the greatest albums I've ever owned. Desert Island Disc... top ten. God bless you, Ms. Griffin. Thank you for carrying us with your voice.

[@pattygriffin3232]

You are always welcome ❤️

Same here, on a whim, had never heard of her before, was totally blown away! Turned some family and friends on to her too and they had the same experience 💕

Saw you last night in Kent, Ohio and today am listening to my oldie favorites!

May 5, 2007 my sister took her life.. "I remember where I was, was a day much like today, the sky was big and wide and blue".

I lost my best friend 10 years ago, slow suicide with substance abuse. This song brings him back to me every time. And if the pain ends when you die. I miss him daily

[@MichaelGreen-qy5ns]

To a sincere friend thru my early to young adult years. He demonstrated the courage to speak truth to power. He pleaded just for a chance. He is missed by many. Vaya con Dios RRR.

Some better way to say ‘goodbye’…?…probably not..

[@jefflundgren5562]

Can relate to this tune. Gotta stay strong Rings true

[@blazeginsberg7278]

I first came upon you in 2001 when I was 13 years old. Patty your music was a light at the end of the tunnel during some tricky times. Preferably a bunch of BS with school.

[@charlescarpio8403]

I love the accordion that comes in on the second verse.

[@robinburkhart8347]

My brother, Billy, took his own life when his pain and fear turned to anguish. A desperate grab for peace by a tormented man who saw the world as only an artist can. The shadows and details finally consumed him. I wonder, still. if there was a better way to say goodbye...

[@maengun2091]

So sorry Robin. I think of my dad when I hear this. I believe you'll see your brother again. And without the torment

[@andrewscease8185]

There might have been, but your brother's choice had nothing to do with you. I'm sorry you never had a proper goodbye. He lives on in you and everyone who knew him.

[@betsyowers2835]

So sorry for the pain.. and loss He's at peace Bless u..

[@jamilabi3861]

Pain is an open wound for which there seems to be no cure... I can hardly breathe without you at times... and I wonder if the pain really does end when you die? because when you're gone you can never come back.

[@shannonceleste5557]

RIP Harris Wittels and the rest of our loved ones

[@ronsmits100]

Bravo

[@karenmcpherson2347]

To my friend Gaytanna who left this earth 2 years ago. I miss her so much. I am lost with out her.. Today my heart is big and sore and my heart is broken. I loved her so much.

@@picknfish I’m abundantly happy patti opted for my lyrics in this song and not miss dickensons’…?

[@ronaldjaybelin520]

Not necessarily about mortal loss

[@brucetennyson5035]

I think this is a break up song but it reminds me of my daughter Ali. She died in a car accident in 1999. “Today my heart is big and sore, it’s tryin’ to push right through my skin”

[@davidchen4330]

I think the song is about someone lost to suicide.

[@brucetennyson5035]

Will You save the last dance for me? I'll take lessons willingly but in any case, Shawn, please remember me fondly as You can.

I love You now as always and always will. May God bless You this year Shawn Colvin with inspiration for Your lovely mind. May Your spirit be lifted and may You sing as heaven intended. Meanwhile I'll watch the stars for any sign and You'll be the first to 'know' if 'We' are to be blessed but I 'know' that You already 'know' so I must pray to You again. Please be kind. You never know what You may find in a heart that skips a beat but catches up to You in time to 'know' true love. All my affection trust and faith is with You this year Shawn and if I don't get to see You go in peace grace and love as You always have and always will. You always have been a beacon to my soul so please don't be angry because I followed it home to You.
