Genre: Instrumental Piano Ballad
Running Time: 3:24

Musician Note:
The song that started it all – conceived one night in the dark alone at the piano.  Was so moving that I simply did not wish to risk ruining it with lyrics or a formal name.  Considered adding strings but again simplicity won out.  The contrasting intro/outro sections give the main section room to move and grow within itself.  I found using the diminished chord within the chorus quite jarring and powerful to experience as a listener and a performer.  Though it didn’t really seem to fit with the other music on the album to some, to me it symbolized the perfect ending to an otherwise eclectic mix of music on the album that I simply needed to share with others.

Performers:
Jason Dodge – piano
