Everything about this guy and Bread was something very special. Their music is so sophisticated that very few bands could compare to them. Their music is so intricate, yet they make it sound so simple. They were the best.

David Gates solo is a pleasure. Gates and James Griffin together equals magic. Especially when you bring in drummer extraordinaire Mike Botts and the musical excellence of Larry Knechtel! Bread remain the finest Soft Rock band ever yet their rocking more uptempo material is criminally underrated.

For those who want to sing along All your life you've waited for love to Come and stay And now that I have found you, you must Not slip away I know it's hard believin' the words you've Heard before But darlin' you must trust them just once More, 'cause baby Goodbye doesn't mean forever Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean We'll never be together again If you wake up and I'm not there, I won't Be long away 'Cause the things you do my Goodbye Girl Will bring me back to you. I know you've been taken, afraid to hurt Again You fight the love you feel for me instead Of givin' in But I can wait forever, a-helpin' you to see That I was meant for you and you for me so remember Goodbye doesn't mean forever Let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean We'll never be together again Though we may be so far apart you still Will have my heart So forget your past my Goodbye Girl 'Cause now you're home at last
