Great Story song, understandable from the first verse to the last, I like that! Liked your internal rhyme ocean/rosy...nice touch there, wordsmith! Excellent instrumentation and skillful lyric writing, clear as a bell delivery. Great ballad!

Smooth lead vocal and chorus accent. Interesting, unique original lyrics. Compliments well w/music.
