When the gentle giant of country music, Don Williams, passed away in 2017, the world mourned the loss of a voice that had comforted generations. Known for his deep, soothing baritone and soul-touching ballads like “I Believe in You” and “Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good”, Don Williams was a rare kind of artist — one who let the music speak, not the fame.
But few knew that before his passing, Don had recorded one final, unreleased track — a song so personal, so raw, that he never shared it publicly. Until now.
🎵 The Lost Track That Speaks Volumes
Titled “Just One More Goodbye”, this hidden gem was quietly discovered among a collection of studio reels by his longtime producer. Unlike many of his polished hits, this recording is stripped down — just Don, his guitar, and a voice that carries decades of heartache and wisdom.
The lyrics are hauntingly intimate:
“If love was forever, then why are we here / Saying one more goodbye through the weight of our tears...”
It’s not just a song — it’s a goodbye letter. A message from a man who’d seen love, loss, and the fragility of time.
🌾 Why It Was Almost Lost Forever
The recording was believed to have been made during a quiet moment in the final year of Don’s life, in his home studio. According to close sources, he never planned to release it — perhaps because it revealed a side of him few had ever seen.
Had it not been for an archival project launched in 2024 to catalog Williams’ unreleased work, the tape might have remained buried in a dusty box, never heard by the world.
