Story Behind The Song
This song was written for my mother many years ago. It's taken many years to record this as it was so personal and difficult to approach. This was written in a period when I was being influenced very strongly by the Beatles music as should be obvious when listened to.

Lyrics
Song To You
I dedicate this song to you
For everything you've done
And all that you've been through
For every time I heard you cry alone
I dedicate this song to you
How many dreams were left behind
The secret world you shared
A future left to find
I never did know what to do
Can I dedicate this song to you
Sometimes it's hard to find a way
To say what we should say
Can I sing a song to you?
So many years since he's been gone
The children that he left you
Have grown up tall and strong
And I owe you so much more it's true
But all I've got's this song to you
