Love is a funny little feeling

It fills me up with a warmth like no other.

Their voices and laughter are like music to me

Gently kindling my heart. 

As I listen to them I close my eyes 

And hold on to their image tightly

Printing them on the back of my mind.

I find pleasure in the smallest of gestures,

In the little moments we share.

They are not many – I must confess

But even so they are enough.

Enough to lighten up my spirit

And make me smile,

Bringing back the sun from behind thick clouds.

Recorded in Pavia, Italy during 2020 winter.
