Song a Week 2023 # 23: This song was originally written and recorded in 2019. As I had a difficult week, health wise, I revisited this song instead of writing something new. I recorded a stripped back version with just piano. Pretty much as I would have composed it. I then remastered the original to try and improve the sound. Here are both versions with a new lyric video.
