Story Behind The Song
I was waving goodbye to my daughter as she left to go back to college after her first visit home as a freshman, when I realized that even though she would be coming home to visit in the future, it would never be the same - I would always have to say goodbye, as she wouldn't be living at home any more. I went inside, cried, and wrote this song.
