Story Behind The Song
In 2007, my wife and I were expecting our first child. Indications were it may be a girl, and we were excited. We were going to name her Arielle. So inspired were we that I asked my wife to write a small poem, and I produced a musical arrangement fitting the poem. Alas, Arielle would not come, as we lost her at the beginning of the 2nd Trimester. Still, I never discarded the song, something told me i just need to keep it. And so it sat, unrecorded from 2007 until June of 2025, and I decided to move forward and record it. Two other children were born, and the marriage failed, but still, I kept this near and dear to my heart. Here is "Arielle - The Biggest Part of Me"

Lyrics
Arielle -
Every time I think of my life
And how without you
Just how empty it would be
One thing becomes clear to me
Arielle I look in your eyes
And see the joy and blessings
Heaven sent to me
You're the biggest part of me
Like the sun on a cloudy rainy day
Your smile illuminates my face
My sweet little child
My life is brighter now
Since I have you around
Arielle, please believe
You're the biggest part of me
Every time I think of my life
And how without you
Just how empty it would be
One thing becomes clear to me
Arielle I look in your eyes
And see the joy and blessings
Heaven sent to me
You're the biggest part of me
You're a love that has brought me so much joy
A gift sent from God above
I'm proud you are mine
My life is fuller now
That I have you around
Arielle, please believe
You're the biggest part of me
Every time I think of my life
And how without you
Just how empty it would be
One thing is clear to me
Arielle the light in your eyes
let's me see the joy and blessings
Heaven sent to me
You're the biggest part of me
Arielle I see in your eyes
All the love and joy and blessings
Heaven sent to me
You're the biggest part of me
All my prayers were answered when you arrived
A vision so lovely
A real blessing true to me
Arielle, I'm happy you're in my life
And I want you to see
You're the biggest part of me
Arielle I look in your eyes
And see the joy and blessings
Heaven sent to me
You're the biggest part of me
