I grabbed my acoustic and just stared singing. It is all about reflection. This track is rough and I will finish it and start cleaning after I figure out if it is worth persuing? I had to sing this in kind of a whisper because my wife, in the next room, might think I am getting all weird. Just would like to know if there is a place for a song like this?

Hmmm... I'll have to check it out later... since I, too, have a song by that title - which, with a slideshow video, was the focal honor-point for our Mom's Celebration of Life in 2015.
So... I'm interested so hear what it is you are wondering about.
Bach atya later, Paul.
Cheers.

Really very pretty!
If you ever listen to Beck's album "Sea Change" you will hear the same kind of introspection.
Keep on Truckin'

Hey Paul - for what it's worth, and if it helps: I like it, and think it's good.
It brings to mind one of my favorite quotes - though I don't know who may have first said it,
"Joy in incomplete until it is expressed."

Pretty cool if you ask me. And prod wise I like that trem/vibrato at around 1:32ish. Also I’d keep it sparse.
I’d chase it and see where it goes! Best, John

Hey Peter:) Crazy that we made songs with the same title. Glad you like it. I wasn't going to go any further if it didn't sit well with folks. thanks you

Hi John, nice to meet you. I was attempting some fills with my PRS guitar and nothing sounded good with the mainly acoustic dominant tracks. I then tried some vibrato and it just seemed to work. Kept the volume down. I am encouraged that nobody thought it was not likeable. Going to finish it. Thanks for taking the time.

Hi Feaker66,

I got a Simon and Garfunkel kinda buzz off of this track with...drum roll...a dash of Pink Floyd.

It's definitely worth pursuing/expanding on. Good luck!

Nice one!
I wouldn't change too much production wise. Definitely keep a full copy of what you have now just in case any new work just sanitises the life out of it.
That's the voice of experience talking there.
I get the references others have made.
