Lyrics

I tried my best
To forget
But you keep coming
Into my mind

A long time ago
You captured my soul
Now I can't let you go

Love forever lasts a lifetime
Then you walked out of my life

Now I dream
Of our time together
Among the fields so green

Instrumental

Love forever lasts a lifetime
Then you walked out of my life

Now I dream
Of our time together
Among the fields so green

George,

Beautiful... It's good to hear you sing again. I still love your recording of my song "Echo" from a few years ago.

Really well done, George smile It's a very pretty tune, and I actually think the roughness in your vocals from the cold added an emotion rawness to it. You put some touching lyrics on this too, and they really compliment the beautiful music behind it.

Great job, and thanks so much for sharing!

This song was so lovely and had such a wonderful pacing to it. It have the song a very intimate, introspective feeling to it. I especially loved the instrumental.

Thanks for sharing!

George,

This is the first of your songs I`ve heard and I really enjoyed the simple warmth in the lyrics and your vocal. That slight waver in your voice is nice- reminds me of Roy Orbison.I hope you`ll post more.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
