I actually wrote this song a couple years ago, but I re-arranged and re-recorded it this past weekend. All the instrumentation on this one is RealTracks/RealDrum, and one track of tambourine. All the vocals are me (once again, cheap labor!) I hope you enjoy it!

Here are the lyrics...
A Night Like ThisWords and Music, Copyright Stephen W. YoungBright stars shining in the sky tonight
There doesn't seem to be a cloud in sight
There's a big moon smiling on your car going down the road
All the trees are swaying to the sound of the radio
A little country, a little rock n roll
The kids are sitting in the back seat
Smiling as they hear you sing
And on a night like this you can do anything
Yeah, on a night like this you can do anything
You haven't seen your mom in it's been too long
Your daddy's getting older but he's still having fun
There's a big apple pie on the table in the dining room
There'll be be deep discussions of trivial stuff
The wisdom in this house is more than enough
The kids are dancing in the front room
Laughing as they hear you sing
And on a night like this you can do anything
Yeah, on a night like this you can do anything
Now the food is ready and it smells so good
You know you'll probably eat more than you should
The people you love gather round the table in the dining room
As you join hands to give thanks it feels so right
But this is nothing special, it's just another night
The kids are sitting at the table
Smiling as they hear you pray
And on a night like this you can do anything
Yeah, on a night like this you can do anything
And with a life like this you can do anything
*****
Merry Christmas!
Steve
