Beautifully sad Charlie. This would be a lovely dedication engraved on a plaque with a loved ones name, on a park bench overlooking the sea. So touching. a fave... I will be listening to 'Starry Starry Night' this weekend and looking forward to seeing more lyrics from you. Enjoy a happy, peaceful weekend Charlie xo
