Here is the music video that was released today for it it. It's a gem.


This was written for Sheena Ringo for the Rising Sun Rock Festival in 2008. It was performed then and the studio version was recored this year. Ms. Ringo is quite the talented composer/arranger in her own right, by the way.


Lyrics

You
You were the one
That I remember
It was you

And
I loved you true
And though you've gone away
In my heart I'll always be with you

So you should know
Although it's over
It's still you
Here
Here in my heart
You'll be a part of me
Part of me will always with you.

No guarantees in life.
Sometimes love just goes wrong
But that's okay
Either way it's worth it
Love's still my favorite song
And in the end
If the angels ask me
To tell them what love is
I'll say it was you
