Heck the quality of your vocal is enough to crave a re-listen, but that hook and the heartfelt lyrics elevate the crave to a demand.

Thanks, Marty. Bill deserves most of the lyric credit on this one. It's nice to have co-writers who know what they are doing... smile

Thanks, gman.
That acoustic guitar is an early BIAB acoustic (so is available in all the packages). So anyone can get that sound!

It's a wonderful touching song that has so much potential that it will be a crime if it doesn't get the exposure it deserves!

Take care, TB

Very nice of you to say, Torrey...thanks...

Nice! And what a rhyme.

As you’ve noted Bill’s prosody is very good and then you match that to your rich vocals and poignant melody and arranging skills and voila, a lovely song is born.

This may be an oldie from the earlier BiaB days but it is also a goodie!

Great by all the measures.

Enjoyed it!

Thanks, y'all!!
