Scott and Liz are the perfect examples of angels in this world. With the world being so fast right now and people being uncaring, passionless and superficial, these two manage to bring a sense of relief to our lives, making us believe there are more people like us out there. It's just comforting. People like them, should NEVER die.
this song will forever remind me of my cousin who passed at age 30 this past September. she was my best friend and musical singing counterpart. My life has not felt normal since except for when i listen to this song. I feel as if she's with me every time i hear this beautiful piece of music.
This song makes me think of my grandmother who had an aneurysm in her brain burst. she went into a coma and never woke up. I love this song. its amazing howone person can write something so beautiful.. and have another person sing it so beautifully.
I listened to this song after I bought the cd so I could listen to "Kiss the Air." It struck me as having a haunting feeling to it so I looked up the lyrics. I was interested to read the background though, because it wasn't what I thought of when I heard the song. I imagined a mother holding her child in her arms trying to comfort it as it passed away. I guess both stories are appropriate.
I'd downloaded this the song without knowing anything about it other than that I liked Liz Callaway. Not being able to find it on my pc, however, I eventually forgot about it. Finally found it today, listened to it, and am emotionally done in. And that's without knowing the background of the story. it felt to me as if someone were singing me an eternal lullabye.
Will definitely get this cd or the downloads. Thanks for posting (and for writing it!). And to Ms. Callaway for singing it.
Scott! I must say that I can not stop listening to this song. I can not wait to be able to see the whole show! As one who has set beside the bed as loved ones were sick you never know what to say. This sums everything that was going thru my head during those times in my life. Thank you!!!!
I want to let you know what a comfort this song has been for me the past couple of days.I have been holding my Mothers hand and singing it quietly in her ear as she sleeps her way to heaven. Your gift is so special. From the bottom of my breaking heart, thank you.
@clarkcny your so kind, keeping near your mother in her time of need. judging by the date you posted this, she's probably gone to that better place now... im sorry and i hope she's resting in peace.
@sophiepd08 thank you for your sweet words. my momma passed the day i wrote that message to Scott. this song will forever be in my songbook of life. the words comfort me in a way that defines my relationship with my mother in her final days. liz is able to be so specific with the story of the song, yet embrace the universality of its humble message. happy thanksgiving.
I think Liz is the epitome of a great singer. Everything about her voice is amazing. The tone, articulation, etc...AMAZING!! Her interpretation is so refined and decorated with different nuances that shape the music. And of course, props to you Scott, I don't think I've heard lyrics as raw and vulnerable as yours in a very long time. You are incredibly gifted. Keep it up.
That was the most beautiful song I've ever heard!!! I'm still crying! The lyrics and Liz's voice go hand in hand! You are an amazing writer! Don't stop doing what you're doing!!!
Scott, you are an amazing composer and having Liz Callaway sing your song just makes it that much more amazing. I couldn't stop crying throughout this video. She truly is amazing and this song is also so amazing. I have always wished I could sing one of your songs. They are just, amazing.
This song is absolutely beautiful. I have goosebumbs all over and I'm crying in public right now! I can't imagine the pain of telling someone it's OK to leave you, but if ever I can't find the words Scot wrote them for me. Beautiful.
its exactly like you said... angelic voice singing about angels... it's amazing. don't ever stop scott, you're incredible. i hope one day i will have the honor of working with you.
Her voice simply incredible!

I think all the comments below have pretty much summed up the feelings evoked by this piece.
It does not fail to bring me to tears every time. Even in public.
The music is haunting, and the lyrics are stunning. Liz's voice is amazing.
Everything you want to say to your dying loved one, but could never voice.
Scott Alan, you're a genius.
