A really beautiful collection of melodies and lyrics by William Mahan, who is an architect, painter, musician and jewelry maker. The title tune's lyrics are about first love, and has a lilting waltz melody in C major. We Were Just Children is a song in 4/4 and the key of C major. It was written in honor of Mr. Mahan’s sister, and can be sung as a tribute to any sibling. You Have Changed My Life is another 4/4 key of C song, with lyrics suitable for a wedding. Thomas Sweet Tommyboy is a melancholy song referring to Mr. Mahan’s father, a farm boy who experienced the loss of his mother at a young age. The Long Black Wall is an anthem to the Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial. This song is presented in the keys of G and F. The F version can be sung by a high soprano, the G version can be sung by an alto (sing an octave lower than written.) A lovely version of Blind Mary is included in the keys of C and G with new lyrics by Mr. Mahan. Seasons is another 4/4 piece in the key of C. A Christmas Hymn to St. Joseph is a lovely minor and haunting tune for low voice. Jennifer’s Lullaby was written for Mr. Mahan’s daughter when she was a baby. .
