One of the most beautiful compositions written by the songwriting duo of Pam Swayer & Marilyn McLeod. This great remake was released only on 7” single on Venture Records in 1980. Magical production and arrangement by the legendary Tony Camillo. Note that the original version was recorded by Freda Payne in 1977.
