This song had a journey! Written for Wendy Roderweiss' 2012 documentary Stopping For Death: The Nurses of Wells House Hospice, a very simple vocal and piano recording (played by me) is in the movie. I wanted to release this as a single for the movie when it was released but that didn't materialize. I reached out to Mike Garson to contribute piano and essentially waited until a good time showed up to release it. That happened during the pandemic and it was released as a single on my Arc Of Noise Digital store in 2020.
