Dear "Tano Music"...

Looks as though as I read too much into your lyrics frown !!!

Regardless, "Leaving Home" has a profound emotional gravity that makes it memorable long after listening to it.

As a composer, and especially as a lyricist, you're an interesting songwriter, "Tano Music".

Sincerely,

LOREN
