A beautiful song written by Justin Curry from the Scottish band, Del Amitri, from their new album Fatal Mistakes. I've done a lot of covers in my life, but this one is really close to home. The lyrics and melody are stunning. This is just a home version recording with a drum track, casio keyboard, etc.... I'd like to put it on the new album coming up. I would then have the entire band lay down their tracks. Hope you enjoy it!
