This is a beautiful song! Your vocal shines as always and it really carries the song! It's got a great classic folk/rock sound that would have fit right in Jim Croce's repertoire! Stellar mix also!
Thanks, Torrey
Thank you Torrey!
I have to admit, I've always been a great fan of Jim Croce.

As a reference (since Ray was asking for the original embellished notes) I thought it was a nice idea to add the first version I did way back in 1996.
I played the arrangement on my Roland E16 keyboard. The piano track slightly resembles the original guitar arrangement that Wim wrote (which I still can't play properly):

The vocal is so good on this that I focused on it the whole time I was listening. Amazingly good! Then Soundcloud followed it up with a very nice tune by Anne-Marie. What a talented pair you two are! Great work!

Hi Rob, man you did a great job with this. As always, a great mix - but IMHO the vocal on this is really what makes this song shine. Superb job! You may or may not have already tried, I wonder what it would sound with some light drums or other percussion, though I'd hate to lose that Jim Croce sound. Thanks for sharing!
You are absolutely right about possible percussion. I did a song with the very same style a couple of years ago where I added a metronome tick. The metronome really shined in its simplicity and gave the song just what it needed. Sadly, I could not find it anymore...
Anyway, thanks for your comment!

Excellent soft vocals. Beautiful melody for the touching lyrics. Simple piano based arrangement works perfectly. Pop song perfection, reminds me of ABBA ballads, that's why I was expecting to hear some female vocals as well
