This is an excellent waltz with a touch of Marty Robbins.
That mandolin was perfect for this song.
Great vocal and lyrics also.
Great job on this one - Two thumbs up.

Very good vocal Rob! Like someone else said, this reminds me a lot of Marty Robbins (One of the absolute greats). Great 70's sounding Country! Thanks, Torrey

Great work on this, Rob! A couple others mentioned, and I have to agree - I'm definitely getting some Marty Robbins vibes here, which is definitely a good thing! I love how gentle this sounds. It is easy to sway to, and your vocal performance is absolutely on point. Thanks so much for sharing 
Cheers, Deryk

Hi Rob,
I have a great respect for anyone who can write a waltz - I've never been able to get that time signature to work.
This is a great country waltz and whilst I quite agree with everyone who mentioned Marty Robbins, I also thought I could have heard Jim Reeves singing this.
Lovely backing track and very relaxed vocal delivery, all wrapped up in an excellent mix.
ROG.

Rob, this IS a gorgeous song and it really suits your voice which was born to sing country. Good luck as it should be recorded by some mainstream srtists

Lovely song!! Absolutely beautiful vocal (one of your best, and that's saying a lot!), and that mandolin track was born for this song. Really, really nice Rob!! Take care. Greg
