Scoot & Robert,
This is a beautiful song. Such a "gentle" lyric. The stuff of lullabies..
A nice backing track. The lead/fill guitar fits so well. And an excellent tender vocal.
A good write. Well done.

Wow - you made something beautiful guys  The textures of this tune are so silky and smooth. The subtle harmonies in the background pair with the quiet guitar perfectly. It has a very lullaby-esque quality to it. The slow build up wasn't expected too - when the strings started pulsing in and out I was sold. You should be really proud of this one. Thanks for sharing guys!
Cheers,
Deryk

Moves along like a gentle stream.
This really showcases some of the best of you two.
Melancholy yet ultimately up lifting. There is a lot to contemplate in the lyric.
We listened twice and then read the lyric several times. "Sail of your soul unfurls," the hook and so much more work so well to tell the spiritual journey.
Superb!

Hearing Scott`s melody on his demo I was surprised how close it sounded to a lullaby I`d written long ago, and with hardly any changes it fit; nice serendipity that!

Bob Thanks so much Bob. It just amazes me that I can send a track to Robert and he reaches into his archives and pulls out a lyric that just fits perfectly with the track. And what a cool vocal

A very beautiful, soft and touching song that was sang and mixed perfectly. I really enjoyed this! Thanks for the kind words Mario they are appreciated. Glad you mentioned the mix. It took quite a bit of tweaking from Robert and I as it was so different between the headphones, computer and cell phone.
