Several people that I know are having personal struggles that have been overwhelming.  This song is about not giving in to giving up.

Absolutely beautiful song/arrangement/performances... I love the moving and heart-felt lyrics... and the Vox is outstanding... that said, I am hearing some timing issues with the Bass downbeat, and I don't think the busy drum pattern is working...  I sure hope you'll work that out, because this is a wonderful song...

This is a beautiful recording!  I think the bass drum could support more instruments if you should decide to add something else in that part.  If it's just piano, then maybe Frank has a point.  Still, good song.

Frank/Lynn,
Thanks for the comments.  Looking back I agree that the bridge it entirely too busy.  I got in a hurry to post and overlooked too many problems.
 
I cleaned up the Bass track and simplified the drums.  Comments welcome.  I guess the Bridge really needs a guitar.
 
A new version is up Here

Much better, and yes, I would say it does need a guitar, playing off the drums there...  I'll play it for you, if you'd like...

Absolutely beautiful!  I've not heard this very often, but I prefer your version anyway.  Are you playing the piano too?  Very nicely done!  Great vocals too.  A nice backing guitar would be nice too, and I wouldn't mind having some simple drum beats throughout, but this is beautiful the way it is.  (the bass and drums might be a tad loud when they do come in.)

Wonderful way to start ending my evening.  :)

Hi Janet.  It's great hearing from you. 
 
 I wouldn't put too much stock in my piano playing.  The song tempo is 126 BPM and I couldn't play the part that fast.  I recorded the piano  in chunks at 120 BPM and of course edited my sloppy fingerings
 
Thanks for listening.

Beautiful song and beautifully sung.  My 2 cents would be that since there was such a short segment with bass and drums, I think you could have done some strings with the piano and maybe a cello or something and no beats or bass.  Rich, that's what I was hearing but it's only an opinion.  You've always been one of my favorite singers and still are.
