Steve, I'm sure every father would love to hear his his son or daughter express what you have here.
It's a lovely song with great vocals. I loved the subtle use of the chime tree in the first instance of the chorus:
"So let the evening breeze come gently
And sing your lullabies".

Steve
That was really lovely.
Peter Thanks so much, Peter! WOW.
Everything about this is beautiful. What floyd jane said. Thanks, David (and Floyd)  Really do appreciate your kindness, David! Lovely stuff Steve.
The decay on one side of the reverb/delay on your vocals gets a slight snare rattle sound that reminds me of the effect that happens when on stage and the snare responds to the vocalist talking etc. It's not bad or anything just interesting in the way it decays to a single side.
Really nice arrangement and mix.
You record your voice well. Thank you, Ray. Yes there is a slight delay that caused some artifacts on the rendering to streaming, that are not there on the wav file. Thanks so much for your nice comments! === Steve

Wow - this is a powerful tune, and a stunning tribute to your father. It is gentle, moving, and simply beautiful. Your vocals blew me away. There's so much emotional sincerity behind them. I loved how you kept it stripped down too. It adds a lot of merit to the message in what you were trying to say. You should be very proud of this one - thanks for sharing
Cheers,
Deryk

Steve, this is absolutely beautiful. Your voice is both soft and full of character. The backing is wonderfully subdued, and the chord changes are simple and fresh--especially that little delayed change at the end of the sections. It made me ache just a bit for "resolution", and that alone touched my heart.
Me and mine have had a rocky time of it. But even in rebellion and disobedience, I knew just what it was I rebelled against. And now as he has mellowed and I've grown up from a complete buggerhead, that feeling of love has grown to match the assumption.
"You said to put things where I found them
'Cause I may need them again
And so I keep you where I found you
You're in my heart until the end"
Magic.

I've been out of town on pleasure and business, and found out about the loss of a close friend a couple days ago, so I've been out of pocket. Glad to be back... Steve that was very beautiful. My mother passed away Dec 19th 2017 so your song brought tears to my eyes. My mom was the most important thing in my world. My father died when he was 28 years old fro lukima. (Bone and Blood Cancer) so my mom was mom and dad since I was 2 years of age. I was almost 50 when she passed away fro (brain cancer) a tumor in the brain called a gleoblastoma, and I have a love for her that never dies just like you talk about in your song. Thank you for writing this song, it really got to my heart strings. Thanks, trapper456. I'm glad the song touched you. I hope it brought some healing to your hurt. Blessings to you! Your were blessed to have such a wise and loving father and he was equally blessed to have a son that learned from and appreciated him.
As floyd said "everything about this is beautiful." And the verse he quoted is also our favorite of the write - a write packed with thought provoking and well crafted lines.
We couldn't agree more and there is little left to say other than your vocal and instrumental performances perfectly delivered the sentiment.
Thank you for sharing it.

Hey Janice and Bud, nice to hear from you! Really appreciate your wonderful words. Glad you like this one! Great tribute, really beautiful and touching in all its simplicity, message deep from your soul. Marktree and solo fiddle are nice additions for the mood. Your vocal track is engineered very well.
Janne Thanks so much, Janne! Really appreciate your time listening and posting on this one. Glad you like it! === Steve

WOW Steve, what a spectacular tribute!! I would smile down (or up, whatever the case might be) if one of my kids wrote something so beautiful about me. Such a pretty melody, such a sweet vocal, and a beautiful lyric. WONDERFUL!!! Take care. Greg Hey Greg, so nice to hear from you. My dad is definitely UP there. Really glad you like this one, and so appreciate your very kind words! (Love your latest work - you just keep getting better all the time!) Gorgeous....absolutely, stunning, simply beautiful.
Simple and understated production made this shine. your piano skills are evident on this.
Nicely, nicely done.
Excellent all the way around from the simple production to the, lovely vocals to the touching lyrics. Thanks so much, Herb! So glad you like this one. Your input is so appreciated!
