Kathy Mattea cover Where've You Been by Shelly & Phil

Claire had all but given up when she and Edwin fell in love
She touched his face and shook her head in disbelief she sighed and said
In many dreams I've held you near but now at last you're really here

Where've you been I've looked for you forever and a day
Where've you been I'm just not myself when you're away

He asked her for her hand for life and she became a salesman's wife
He was home each night by eight but one stor..my evening he was late
Her frightened tears fell to the floor... until his key turned in the door

Where've you been...

They'd never spent a night apart for sixty years she heard him snore
Now they're in a hospital in separate beds on different floors

Claire soon lost her memory... for..got the names of family
She never spoke a word again....then one day they wheeled him in
He held her hand and stroked her head...in a fragile voice she said (up)

Where've you been...
No I'm just not myself when you're away

very beautifully sang Shelly and Phil. some of the words are sad but have a happy ending. When I worked in the nursing home, I saw a lot of this happening where couples don't remember each other through loss of memory. so sad to see this but sometimes like in the song, something does spark their memory for a few minutes.

excellent singing hun.

endless starz

You guys are great, but it's way to slow. It seams like you made each syllable the same length.

I guess that's what a cover is all about. Making it you're own and never living up to the expectations. lol
