Hi, friends !

My old girlfriend was over and I could not help
falling for her charm ! We had a romance on
a spiritual level and when she left me I felt
a longing I have not felt since my wife died !
This prompted me to write down this little tune
for her

Lyrics:

IN SORROW AND PAIN (By Dani)

In sorrow and pain
I stroll in the rain
my darling has left me
alone I will be
so, please do have mercy
mercy me
for being so blue
longing for you
my sweetheart , for you !

I´m under your spell
I stumbled and fell
I fell for you darling
I can hardly sing
how much I do love you
love you true
and now I can´t cry
my eyes are all dry
from crying goodbye

You came to me my dreamgirl from the past
I was a fool to think that the glow could last

In sorrow and pain
I stroll in the rain
my darling has left me
alone I will be
so, please do have mercy
mercy me
for being so blue
longing for you
my sweetheart , for you !

Very good work in all areas, like the falsetto part; thanks for sharing!

Another sweet tune! Like your last one, I'm hearing a little bit of a Bacharach vibe, which I love! You are really on a roll. Take care. Greg

Hi Dani. The arragement really suits your deep voice. Nicely mixed and the harmonies sound great. Cheers.

Dani,

You are such a romantic writing straight from your heart. Such pretty chord progression, Like the low register to high and the sweet harmonies. I think Greg hit it with the Bacharach vibe.

Hi Dani,

I couldn't say it better than Josie:
"You are such a romantic writing straight from your heart. Such pretty chord progression, Like the low register to high and the sweet harmonies. I think Greg hit it with the Bacharach vibe."
Go on writing.

Hi Dani,

A very sweet and romantic song.
We were wondering..... did you actually sing it in her presence?
Curious to know what her response might be smile

Hi, Rob and Anne-Marie !:))


Dear friends, I wrote
this song after she left
me so I could not sing it
to her straight away, but
I got an email from her
yesterday with these words:

" I am still crazy after you
after all these years"

and that line from her got
me flying all over the walls !!!
Have not been able to sleep
much last night !

Cheers
Dani

Another one straight from the heart. You are a gifted writer. It was also great to learn of your new-kindled friendship opportunity

Keep safe

Trevor

Hi Dani,

What else there to say that hasn't already been said? We agree completely with all that has been said. That rich baritone voice of yours is perfect. This reminds me of something that Burt Bacharach might have written and then Engelbert Humperdink might have sung.

As always, you sound terrific and your music is always sweet and full of passion. Great job!

Alan & Di
Posted By: dani48 Re: In Sorrow And Pain - 06/08/14 09:13 PM
Hi, Al & Di !:))

Thank you so much for
your most kind words !
It is the chords that
might remind you of Bacharach
as he surely uses a lot of
major 7ths, 9ths, m9:s and sus chords
too !:))

Cheers
Dani

Your vocals get better and better Dani. Nice production and mix.

'and now I can´t cry
my eyes are all dry
from crying goodbye'

Heavy stuff straight from the heart.
Posted By: dani48 Re: In Sorrow And Pain - 06/09/14 02:05 PM
Hi, Scott !:))


You are way too nice with
this old crooner but you know
that I am truly delighted by
your most kind comments !:))

Cheers
Dani
