This song is about how I met my wife.......so everything is true.

I REMEMBER WHEN WE MET
YOUR EYES WERE BLUER THAN THE SKIES ABOVE
IT WAS OCTOBER, I CAN'T FORGET
IT WAS A NIGHT MADE FOR LOVE

A DATE, A WALK ALONG THE BEACH
I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS THE START OF SOMETHING NEW
OCTOBER CHANGED EVERYTHING FOR ME
AND IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU

HOW DID I FIND YOU
THE PERFECT ONE FOR ME,
WAS IT LUCK...MAYBE I'M JUST LUCKY
MAYBE IT WAS JUST OUR DESTINY

BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER, IF I FOUND YOU
DOESN'T MATTER, IF YOU FOUND ME
OCTOBER WAS HEAVEN
AND I'M STILL IN HEAVEN CAUSE YOU'RE HERE WITH ME

HOW DID I FIND YOU
THE PERFECT ONE FOR ME,
WAS IT LUCK...MAYBE I'M JUST A LUCKY GUY
MAYBE IT WAS MEANT TO BE

BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER, IF I FOUND YOU
DOESN'T MATTER, IF YOU FOUND ME
OCTOBER WAS HEAVEN
AND I'M STILL IN HEAVEN CAUSE YOU'RE HERE WITH ME

Good song, good singing! That's quite a gift to have, to be with someone for what I assume is a fair stretch of time and to feel that way about it. I know many couples divorced and many couples that are still together but I suspect are bored with each other or flat out dislike each other. Or that argue a lot. But not many that would fit your song. So, enjoy, my friend - it's a great gift!

Hi Sol,

Now I understand you've been together for 41 years and have another 41 to go!
Your wife will blush every time you sing this song.

This is a sincere love song (very different from my last song...).
And you sang it beautifully. Powerful yet clear voice, wonderful!

I wish you both a Merry Christmas!

Hans

Nicely done. The song is suitable for you to dance with your wife and serenade her. I like the old standard type of song you created.

Sol, this is an excellent song and a super tribute to your marriage.
Your vocal is fantastic and the backing tracks fit it perfectly.
Outstanding mix
Loved it

I loved this song as I can really relate to it. This year we will have been married for 59 years and together for 62 years.

Suddenly I realized how many proctologists are on the road.
