My, oh, my, fellow JPFers, we are awful quiet on this forum as of late. I know we need to embrace social distancing in these crazy times, but that shouldn't keep us from congregating here in a favorite haunt. I'm sure we'd all appreciate the diversion of some new music to help us kill the time while we're "sheltering in place". So how about it? Who's got something to share? Here's one largely written by James Delsono, though I pitched in with some tweaks on the lyrics. James had asked me if I were interested in singing this one, and I thought it such a pretty song, I couldn't refuse. Far from perfect I'm sure, but I hope I did it some form of justice. Thanks for the listen, and I hope everyone is safe and healthy!! Here's the song: I LOVE YOU ALWAYS Here are the lyrics:I’ve tried so many days to write . . . to write the perfect song. The notes and words don’t come no more, still I write however wrong. And I almost put my pen aside but one thing's on my brain ... If this was my last day on Earth, would I find time to say I love you, every day. And I look down at God's green Earth, where pain don’t never cease. I look at you, my soul so broke and all I want is peace. And I almost give up straightaway, still one thing's on my mind . . . If this was my last day on Earth each last second you’d be mine. You're ever so kind ... you're ever so kind. The night goes by, so does the day, I’m writing through the tears— all the things I should say to you I haven't said in years ... And if I never write again if i put my pen on down . . . It won’t change a single thing I’ll just say the words out loud ... I love you, everyday, in every way, always. I love you always. I love you, always. (c)2020 James Delsono / DJ Lekich

Hey, Dave,
Thanks for the listen. I've updated the link to a new version . . . not quite sure which you heard. But the new version has a hopefully somewhat softer vocal, having cut down the high EQ in my first take. But glad you enjoyed the tune either way.
Best to you,
Deej
