They played this at your funeral…
I cried so hard, I couldn’t see or breathe…
It’s been nearly five months now…
I have always understood the Impermanence of things…
But still, there comes a time in every day…
If only for a glimmer, a breath, or a heartbeat…
That I am crushed by the lack of You.
Rest long and know Love, dear friend…
Always.
That was indescribably beautiful.

Loved this song ever since I saw Meet Joe Black.
WHAT A VOICE!!!!!!!! gorgeous, perfect simplicity of approach… quite moving indeed! To put together two songs that have been overplayed as much as those two, and come up with something as fresh and powerful as that, is a real accomplishment.
Just to clarify, my saying that those two songs are ‘overplayed’ was not meant to imply that I don’t think they’re amazing songs; in both cases I very much do, particularly ‘Somewhere’ – but they have both been in heavy rotation for 50 years or so now… However, the sheer honesty of this performance cuts through that easily. Beautiful, indeed!
