Willows Never Break (Original by Fay Ann Couture)

This is a song and video I've done in honor of my family. They are a wonderful conglomeration of norwegians, their spouses, and a whole bunch of offspring. Although you won't know most of them, I hope you'll find a familiarity in my family to yours. I was unable to include every relative for either lack of pictures or video time, but I love them all and truly cherish every memory I have been fortunate enough to create with them. The picture at the end is of my wonderful husband who has been a constant rock for me the last 10 years. I love you,Donny. P.S. I love you Mom & Lee.

Willlows Never Break

Sometimes I get lonely
Think I won't get through the day
And find it hard to keep the tears away
I was told there'd be days like that
When people pass memories last
You not bein' here is almost more then I can take
But you made me a willow that won't break

I've always seemed to make it through
Anything that's come my way
There's been a rainbow at the end of every rain
But I'll admit at times I've had my doubts
Wondered what my life is all about
And why some of us will go ahead
While others have to wait
And why some willows bend but never break

But I'll stand my ground though every hurricane
And I'll be around after a drivin' rain
My will may bent but never will fade away
You made me a willow that won't break

(Repeat chorus)

Sometimes I get lonely
Think I won't get through the day
But I know how to keep the tears away
I think of you and days we had
And all the memories that I have
Yeah, some of us will go ahead
While others have to wait
But you made me a willow that won't break
I may bend but willows never break

Hard for me to believe I missed this Gem but it´s true, must´ve been in a coma or somethin¨!!!

I listened to the song several times and handed the headphones to Alice saying: If you wanna listen to the best songwriter/ Singer/Musician in Y.T. here ya go! When the song was over she Said:

" I was imagining being part of a crowd listening to this wonderful song and seeing her on stage, She´s outstanding"

Talk about perfection! Gal you´re really close!

@bios36 Thank you so much for your wonderful comments...I just heard your song the night before last on Eagle Xm radio and was so happy! It sounded great coming over the speakers. I e-mailed Ivan and told him I really loved that song the moment I heard it and he agreed and said likewise! Thank you for sending it so more of us can enjoy it. I have been enjoying all of your new recordings, and Alices' fine videos, of Marks music very much, also! Thank you both for your awesome work!!

I don’t want to compare you to anyone… because you are a true pleasure to listen to…. but if I have to, and for me you are a softer, sweeter Crystal Gayle.

@franknbarbie Thank you Frank...this was the hardest recording i have done so far....I couldn't get the big orchestra sound I had invisioned but it was a big challenge all the same. It is all about family and how they are the foundation of all we do in life. Thank you for your kind words. (smile)

You have put to music a feeling that is universally shared by so many people. That is the mark of a gifted songwriter. Familial connection, so beautiful.
