Story behind the song
This is my first attempt at songwriting. My inspiration was a very memorable but all too brief relationship I had many years ago. Many thanks to Ralph Tyrrell who did a wonderful job arranging and producing my song from a recording of me singing the melody. Also many thanks to Leanne Farmiloe who played violin and Janet Robinson for singing backing vocals with me.
Lyrics
Broken Hearted Words and Music by Susan Raines When I first set eyes on him The attraction was oh so strong And I know it's strange to say I felt I'd known him my whole lifelong Like a case of Deja Vu As if our souls had once crossed path And when he said he felt it too It was all too good to be true For the day would come when he'd go away He was only in this country on holiday We'd talk and laugh the nights away And make love to the break of day And fall asleep in each others arms I felt so loved and secure from harm Then my world came crashing down The day I feared had come too soon I wonder what my life would be If he'd stayed with me instead Now sometimes I wish we had never met Because I've compared every lover with him He took my heart, my soul, my light When he got on board that flight Broken Hearted And now he lives so far away How I wished that he had stayed Broken Hearted More than twenty years have past And they flown by oh so fast He is often in my thoughts I hope his dreams have been surpassed But I'm thankful to him, though it hurts to say To this day I've never loved that way again He took my heart, my soul, my light When he got on board that flight Broken Hearted And now he lives so far away Oh how I wish that he had stayed I'm Broken Hearted

Sad recolections in these lyrics that are well written and constructed with appropriate vocals that are of high quality. Vocals are beautiful with a warm and soft sound like fine wine. Wonderful blending of a second vocal that sets of a really sad story of love past. Well done and look forward to more up coming tracks. Best wishes for the future Susan Raines. Highly recommended.
