20/08/2017 I LOVED YOU ALL MY LIFE



I JUST FORGOT TO REMEMBER
WHATS MY NAME WHERE IM FROM
I KNOW YOUR FACE BUT I DONT KNOW
WHERE OUR HEARTS BELONG

THIS COULD BE MY LAST TIME
ILL EVER LOVE YOU WHEN YOU SMILE
BUT WHEN IM GONE PLEASE REMEMBER
I LOVED YOU FOR ALL MY LIFE

I SEE ITS HURTS YOU AND IT HURTS ME
THERE WAS SO MUCH JOY
AND NOW THERES PAIN
BUT FOR EVERY RAINBOW THAT WE SEE
THERES ALWAYS SUNSHINE AFTER RAIN

THIS COULD BE MY LAST TIME
ILL EVER LOVE YOU WHEN YOU SMILE
BUT WHEN IM GONE PLEASE REMEMBER
I LOVED YOU FOR ALL MY LIFE


PLEASE TELL THE CHILDREN
IVE ALWAYS LOVE'D THEM
THERE MEMROIES COME AND GO EACH DAY
AND WHEN THE GOOD LORD
CALLS ME HOMEWARD
HIS GOLDEN LIGHT WILL GUIDE MY WAY

THIS COULD BE MY LAST TIME
ILL EVER LOVE YOU WHEN YOU SMILE
BUT WHEN IM GONE PLEASE REMEMBER
I LOVED YOU FOR ALL MY LIFE

Brad,

Excellent job on this. A tough subject - we have watch our neighbor declining over the last two years.

The arrangement and production and mix are very well done. Your best to date. Terrific job on the vocal, too - expressive.

Josie's background vocals really notch this up. Excellent job, Josie. Really brings the song to life.

Brad, Dont worry,friend. its because you got it bang to rights as they say. Personally dealing with this on a day by day basis watching someone you love(a parent in this case)slip in and out of the room of Life.The times out are getting longer but what is amazing is that in his lucid moments(and sometimes days)his Love for Mum(and hers for him)still shine like a beacon.if he could sing(God fobid! lol)i know he would sing "I have loved you all of my life". Excuse me now, I have eyes to blot.

I have to agree with everything that has been said thus far.

This is absolutely fantastic. The only thing that I can add is "why isn't this on the radio"? I think it would sell a ton DLs.

You two should be extremely proud of this!

This is a keeper!
