Thank you Mom for finding this song for me to put in my heart so I could sing it for you. To bring tears of joy reminding us how deeply we love. So much that we can still cry. Love you Mom. 🌷

This version of the song is far and away the best to me. Your voice completes it so much that id be taken away to a place where i can let things go and cry. Always wanted to thank you and yet i found it here:)

Sad song nice voice, it really takes too long to learn to live alone, when I left my ex for cheating 10 years went by before I found the man that I married and happily.

[@KimKalesti]

Thank you for your kind sentiment.

[@victoriabugbee9745]

One of the best voices on the planet. Really!

[@KimKalesti]

Thank you Victoria, I love singing for you. Thank you for your sweet comment. xo

This is my most favorite version of the song. Kim Kalesti’s detailed expression really boosts the hollow feeling of not being able to love again the way one used to do.

This is beautiful! Been listening to Emily since her debut album and am so delighted to discover your music now! Beautiful song!

[@MJLeger-yj1ww]

Never heard of her, but she does this old Peggy Lee/Eydie Gorme number very well, just lovely And only a guitar with her -- she has quite a talent and sings this sad song hauntingly beautiful. I'll return to this site. Thank you for posting!

[@KimKalesti]

I appreciate you taking the time to listen to my heart in this beautiful song.

[@MJLeger-yj1ww]

Something tells me you may be alone now, (you said "listen to my heart" which denotes special feelling. Well, I'm alone now, it's tough, but at least I, for one, must get used to it now. I have my pets, that's all I want right now, maybe that's my lot in life now. And you're quite welcome, keep on singing as well as you do now! You sing this song beautifully. One can hear a lot of feeling when you sing, and that's one of the most important things in performing. I know, but I'm retired now, though I miss it some.

[@KimKalesti]

Yes, I've had the experience of being unhappy. I can recall my sadness in a song when I need to remember it in a song like this one. Life is filled with so many different emotions and experiences. Isn't life marvelous! Marvelous to be a lone but not to be lonely. Animals are super cool!!
