Hi,friends !

Guess I am safely back in the box again !
I pondered if I should post this tune
as I was not sure if it was appropriate
but in the end I decided to do it anyway.
Christmas time is certainly a lonely time
without your dearest beside you !

LYRICS:


And I Knew I Loved You (Music & Words by Dani)

I can still, recall that summer night
we would sit and talk till the break of dawn
and I looked at you, and your eyes spoke right
to my heart, telling me, silently to go on

And you, you looked so wonderful
I can see you now as I saw you then
I could feel you close and the night was full
of your lovely scent when
I held you tight, in the still of the night

Why, did it have to end the way it did, I don´t know
I do not understand but it´s lonely here without you now

solo

Why, did it have to end the way it did, I don´t know
I do not understand but it´s lonely here without you now

When I close my eyes, I can see you there
standing smiling at me
with that look in your eye and your chestnut hair
flowing down your shoulders freely
In the summer breeze
and I knew……..I loved you !

Christmas can be a joyous but a very lonely time. Your song is a reminder to all of us who are celebrating at this time of year of the thousands or millions of people who are not having such a happy xmas. Thanks

Hi Dani
And Go on, we must, my friend. Hopefully you will have your family to enjoy Christmas with, and your memories also of happy Christmases past.
Very good recording, and Brent's solo break fits very well.
cheers

Hi, Ian, old friend !:))

Thank you for your encouraging words
and kind comments !
I am trying my best to go on !
It ain´t always easy but the
best cure for loneliness is
to gather as much as possible
to do, so nowadays I even have
a barbershop singing quartet too !:))
Rebecca from Portland OR sings tenor
in this male quartet !:))


I wish you a Merry Christmas and
a Happy New Year !:))

Dani, Once again you have found some very interesting chord changes. I'm glad you posted this. Music heals the soul. Not only yours but your listeners too. Merry Christmas to you friend. Tom

Dani,

Beautiful song. As Tommy said, some very interesting chord progressions. I like the background vocals. I pray you have comfort this Christmas season. I lost both of my parents in December (my Mom on December 23rd, and my Dad on the 7th). I still miss them, and I can understand the melancholy side of this time year, when we celebrate the joy of God's love.

Merry Christmas, and keep singing!

Steve

Hi, Tommy, my friend !:))

I thank you for your most kind comments !
Yes, you are right, without the music
and all the friends I have got thru it
all over the world I do not know how I had
managed !!!

You shall have a most Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year too !:))

Cheers
Dani

Hi, Steve, my friend !:))

I am sorry for the loss of your parents !
They have walked the path on which we all
have to go, and they have reached the end.
I am certain they have found eternal peace
and comfort as has my beloved Beni too !
If it was´nt for this yearning feeling....

I am touched by your warm thoughts and words
and your more than kind comments !
Steve, I wish you too a most Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year !:))

Hi Dani,

I didn't realised that I'd missed this song until just now.

Your words, music and harmony carried me along like I was drifting down a river and watching the changes of life slowly passing by and feeling sad that I couldn't go back and relive them. I enjoyed the experience.

May you and your family have a wonderful Christmas,
Noel
Posted By: dani48 Re: And I Knew I Loved You - 12/17/13 10:22 PM
Hi, Noel !:))

Thank you for listening and kind commenting !:))
(Lol) You did not miss it after all (chuckle),
but you seem to be like me, getting lost among
the multitude of tunes popping up in a neverending
stream ? :))

Your words touched me, deeply, as I would do
anything to get those bright sunny days back
in my life smile

Thank you Noel !

...and a Merry Xmas to you and family too !!::))

Cheers
Dani
