Cover art for Goodnight lyrics by William Fitzsimmons

One of my favorite Fitzsimmons songs. It is about a marriage that has faded and grown old. He goes on to describe how long they have been married - "the dress you wore is faded to the ivory that remains..." They have been married ten years now and are beginning to realize maybe it wasn't the right idea. William is wishing she would stay yet he recognizes her unhappiness and how the marriage has faded.
