The harmonies are very nice. Keep them coming. LyricLab – Where words become music https://www.lyriclab.net/

Al-David Veteran Joined: Dec 2012 Posts: 8,362 Originally Missouri ... Now Al...	Hi Donna, Nice! Good to hear you. If I may, one suggestion on the lyric: At the beginning of the second verse, you say: "She ended her life on a grey wintry day" Might I suggest: "She chose the angels on a grey wintry day" the remainder of the verse makes it quite obvious she took her life. "She ended her life" is a wee bit stark for the beauty and grace of the rest of the lyric. That's just my opinion and I could be way off. But, it's a thought that occured to me as I listened. Very nice sing. Ya did good! Alan Last edited by Al-David; 10/16/17 02:36 PM.
