Story Behind The Song
I needed a closing song for my shows in Glacier National Park - And the
one theme that kept coming back to me was - it's not goodbye, it's just goodnight - It's a great song to end on -

Lyrics
GOODNIGHT MONTANA
David Walburn © 2004
I hope your mountains were high your skies blue
And your rivers were full of fish
Your travels light, your troubles few
And you received every wish
And when it?s time for you to go back home
And rejoin the race
Your hand may well be waving goodbye
But your heart never leaves this place, it just says
Goodnight Montana goodnight
O? Turn the lights out on another great day in paradise
Goodnight Montana goodnight
O? you can never say goodbye to her you can never say goodbye
Just goodnight
When the seasons turn on a new spring day
And the mountains begin to thaw
Where ever you may be at the time
You will hear Montana call
And you cannot refuse her song
It?s futile if you try
Didn?t you know by now my friend
You can never say goodbye, just
Goodnight Montana goodnight
O? turn the page on another great day in paradise
