Try to Remember - The Brothers Four - instrumental cover by Dave Monk

Описание: This is my first YouTube post since hearing that my good friend and duet buddy Steve Reynolds has passed away.
I am still in shock and find it hard to believe as he was only 35. I will always remember having so much fun on our Chicken and Chip evenings, recording our duets together.
Rest in peace my dear friend.

Here is my instrumental cover of "Try to Remember" by The Brothers Four.
I hope you like it.
The Backing track is from Karaoke Version.

Lyrics
Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh so mellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain was yellow

Try to remember the kind of September
When you were young and callow fellow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow
Follow

Try to remember when life was so tender
That no-one wept except the willow
Try to remember when life was so tender
That dreams were kept beside your pillow

Try to remember when life was so tender
That love was an ember about to billow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow
Follow

Deep in December it's nice to remember
Although you know the snow will follow
Deep in December it's nice to remember
Without a hurt, the heart is hollow

Deep in December
It's nice to remember
The fire of September that made you mellow
Deep in December our hearts should remember and follow
Follow
