[etransform]

Now that I have retired, I have much more time on my hands and love to listen to good music. This song is my daughter's favourite and was played at her wedding. Just Beautiful! So I thought I would learn the words, and discovered that Amanda McBroom wrote it and Bette Midler sang it first and perhaps the best. But several good singers have sung this well, and the beauty of this song is its lyrics and composition which everyone can sing and enjoy. Thanks for the upload.

There is one more nice rendition of this song available on YouTube - by the talented Greek singer Mario Frangoulis.

I dont know who Amanda McBroom is but the music was written by Mendellsohn, Piano concerto no 1,2nd mov. Listen to it on You tube.
