Bob,

Without question, one of your best . . . beautifully written and performed. What I find really interesting about this song is the melody of that final title line “When morning rises over New York”. It concludes each verse, but it actually could serve as the first line of a chorus . . . that is, there’s a part of me that hears that melody continuing in chorus like fashion. As a songwriter, it’s probably where I would have gone. But your choice here is wonderful and creative and really accentuates that very appealing hook. Really well done in that regard, and it’s what separates the ordinary from the great. Excellent tune!

All my best to you,

Deej
