That is very kind of you to say Pat. I'm happy to hear that my songs strike a chord with you. This song is very special to me for a number of reasons. One of which is that it is the first song I wrote after Hurricane Katrina. It had been exactly two years to the month after the storm when I wrote it. I had moved to a new home, a new city, a new state, a new job; made new friends and thought I had found the love of my life. I was wrong.
But the experience started me writing again and I've written dozens of songs since. Life takes you where it takes you and it does so without warning. My late brother who lived and worked in Nashville for many years when encouraging me to continue to write songs, always told me I only had to get it right ONCE. But that time would almost always come when it was least expected and likely be a song least expected to resonate with everyone - as such a song would certainly have to do. I believe you have written a ONE! I made my first post before I had listened enough times to allow the song to really sink in but I now realize this is beautiful piece of craftsmanship. Charlie

This is a song that I feel deep inside and it hurts, it aches ... but all in a good way. You've shared an experience everyone can relate with on a gut level. Now THAT'S songwriting!
The production matches the song. Very powerful.

Hi Laurence,
Have to comment on this one.
So beautiful! But so close to depression to...
Aren't we lucky we can transform some of this heartache into songs?
Your vocals stand out (as usual)
Thanks for sharing this one
Fred Fred, yes it was a rough time but I can relive it safely through this song. Thank you. Lovely, and the emotion in your voice confirms that you meant every word. There is no greater justice for anyone with a broken heart than to the one who can write a song.
-Carolyne I agree. Thank you. Patt, Fred and Carolyne,
I don't make a habit of replying more than once to a specific post, but this is an exception.
'Love again' and 'Seventh Skin' are my two favorite songs on the forum so far.
They are a fine demonstration of Lawrence's talent and craftsmanship.
Rob Thank you again Rob. That's very generous of you.

Thank you Charlie. You are too kind. This is a song that I feel deep inside and it hurts, it aches ... but all in a good way. You've shared an experience everyone can relate with on a gut level. Now THAT'S songwriting!

Rob There are so many amazing song writers on the forum that its hard for me to say that my top 2 songs are from the same person... BUT... I can surely say that LOVE AGAIN and SEVENTH SKIN are two of my favorites from Lawrence... and that's saying something, because I like EVERYTHING this guy writes! Interesting premise, thinking of my favorite song from each person on the forum.. .hmmm...

I'm late, late, late in getting on board this train.
I'm so glad it's come around again, because it was really a pleasure to listen to.
