This is another song from 'Waiting in the Wings' album and for this one I wrote lyrics and music. Tells story of someone only being around for the good times and disappearing for the bad.

Fair Weather Friend
© Tony Cliff 2018
Verse1
All those years of playing gigs
In drunken noisy bars
All those years of travelling
Well I still bear the scars
You just want the glamour
To dress up like a queen
The lady of the manor
Just likes to be seen
Verse 2
All the years of working
For my overnight success
All the nights in cheap hotels
And other people’s mess
You disappeared then
You’re nowhere to be found
How come you’re here again
Glad to be around
Chorus
‘Cos now my songs are playing on the radio
And my album’s doing OK
You show up out of nowhere
Like you’ve never been away
You might call me a cynic
But I know how these things end
And so I say it loud and clear
You’re my fair weather friend
Oh babe, just a fair weather friend

I faded the RealTrack pedal steel in and out but played in VST Resonator for the lead. I added my fingerstyle acoustic and solo. Added Ivory II upright piano and Trilian Bass part. Occasional cymbals from Addictive Drums 2 and some Shimmer Shake Strike. Then my vocal and backing vocals.
