Beautiful writing, and performance, Layna. But frankly, you could sing from the telephone book, and I'd love it :)

Stunning vocals. This is a very moving piece - beautiful!

I'm only doing the singing on this one (trying to anyway). Not the greatest vocals but I just think this is a special song, one of Peter’s best, and wanted to share it, especially with those who haven’t heard it before. It's about growing old and getting your cherished memories in order while you're still able.

In a world of illusions and whimsical lies
Youth that is fleeting and love songs that die
We’re searching to find the true meaning of love
Sensing it's real, and descends from above

How do you measure the care of a father
Dedicating himself to toil day by day       
Every moment spent thinking of others
Sacrificing in ways he knows none can repay
           
Love is disputed in poems and in songs
What are we missing where have we gone wrong                          
Real love, it seems, is so hard to define
In view that its price is revealed over time

How do you write down the touch of a mother
Soothing her child’s cry without delay
Giving time and attention and comfort
Doing all that she can and providing a way

To reach their potential 
Filling minds and hearts with light
Her words and touch are gentle
Encouragement to fight

Real love can be sharp; can cut like a sword
Truth spoken in love that the weak can't afford 
Enduring the taunts, the mocking and jeers
Your reason to speak even if no one hears

How do you measure the care of a father
Dedicating himself to toil day by day         
Every moment spent thinking of others
Sacrificing in ways he knows none can repay

These precious roles are essential
To pay the price of love
Helping all to reach their potential
Giving tears and sweat and blood

How do you measure the care of a father             
Dedicating himself to toil day by day          
Every moment spent thinking of others
Sacrificing in ways he knows none can repay

The Price Of Love

Second version of a tune I first recorded back in the 2001
Laying on a beach with the ambient Sun bathing you with its warmth, dreaming of what makes you peaceful and Happy.
