Displaying all reviews (2)I have loved this song since first hearing Julie Gold, who wrote lyrics/music, sing it and then, of course listening to Bette Midler's heartfelt rendition of it. Now, I can learn and perform it myself!
Musicnotes Customer
I sang/played this for a wedding and it was a nice arrangement.The only problem was that the verses are not all included throughout the piece, but are in paragraph form at the end. This is fine if you are just singing, but to sing and play, it makes it a little more difficult.
