Story Behind The Song
My girlfriend is from Australia (I live in the U.K.) and I wrote this for her when she left to go back home.
Song Description
The song is about how (as a couple) my girlfriend and I would take advantage of the time we had together both knowing that she'd be leaving for home soon. The essence of the song evolves around the fact that from day to day, I don't miss seeing her but now the time has come for her to leave I will miss her very much.

Lyrics
We wake up every morning
Lovers side by side
Without a thought we kiss
and say good- bye
I don't even miss you
Because I know that I will see you
When the sun goes down
and evening comes around
But today is farewell as I kiss you
Waving you off on your journey away
Today is farewell
and I think you can tell
That I'll miss you, My love
Farewell
Living for the day
We lost track of time
Now your leaving and it seemed
To creep in so sly
Escaping reality
Still led us here with no other choice
But to wake every morning
Lovers on their own
So today is farewell as I kiss you
Waving you off on your journey away
Today is farewell
and I think you can tell
That I'll miss you, My love
Farewell
