A song I wrote for my wife in 2009.  Done with Mixcraft 4.5

Softly By My Side

Into my life you came to me
Like a beacon of light
Now I clearly see
Shining brightly through the night

You must have known I needed light
More than just a friend
to pass the time
Clinging softly by my side

Well, It feels so right
But it's just so sad
That it took so long
A lifetime almost gone

Now all that you had you gave to me
And a happier man I can finally be
You're standing softly by my side

Great song John, the lyrics are so beautiful and you vocals are just perfect.
Reminds me of James Taylor in a jam session with the Beatles.
Your playing and your arrangements are outstanding.
Just a beautiful song , superbly produced... Bravo.

Nice one John - a good listen.  Reckon I would like to hear Norah Jones singing this.
