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".

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!

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 smile


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...

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!

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!
