Key of E. When the Getting’s Good was a phrase that occurred to me one day describing the perfect time to leave a relationship. I had it on a scrap of paper for six months before thinking about the song lyrics. Splitting up is never a happy event – it’s an emotional journey itself – but I truly believe there’s a period of time you can do it with your heart and a time when it’s too late and you’re in it too deep. Tenth song from Robot Raven's 2018 release, Set to Soar.
