Recording information by MelanieV

This song is dedicated to a dear friend *Daddy35* who recently has lost his father, god rest his soul.

I sang this song at my grandmother's funeral a few years ago...It's the song that helped her get through when her husband, my grandfather passed at an early age.

Dale, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your loving family.

Mel

Thanks hun :) It's so hard for me to sing it without crying... I must've listened to it 5 times, bawled my eyes out and finally had the courage to complete it.

For those who would like to know what the song means... here's a bit of the story.

It's a daughter/son, singing about his/her father passing away. Asking for hope, praying for a better day. Telling the father he will always be there, that he/she will always feel him, through the sun and rain, the stars and moon... the warm summer breeze and the blowing wind. Asking for a ray of sunshine to warm up the dark days of sorrow...The singer, living far away from her mother, speaks about the her, going back alone to the village where she spent more than half of her life with the man she loved, in the village where they grew up together and where he is laid to rest...asking the warm sea breeze to sing her this song in order to giver her strenght and courage.

Mel, this is so, so very beautiful! My thoughts and prayers are with Daddy35 and his family during this difficult time....

On this song, i know it's in French but I can't help to notice a Celine Dion sound here? It's so uncanny, so very, very wonderful!
