"On a Day Like This"

Here is a song from the vault.  Wrote it several months ago - and had a friend help me record it.  Discovered during that process that I suffer from severe 'mic shyness'.  Hope to remedy that affliction once I get my own microphone.

This is a love song that mentions death - I am not afflicted with anything (presently), but a collegue had recently suffered a health crisis, so mortality was on my mind.

[SONG]
{t:On a Day Like This}
{st:by, James McCormick, 2006}
{c:In 6/8 time, a melancholy waltz}

On a [C]day like this so [F]long ago
My [C]goddess I did [G]meet,
And my [C]loins did throb
And my [F]blood did boil
The a-[C]ttraction [G]was com-[C]plete
{soc}
Yes I [F]saw for-[Em]ever [C]in her [F]eyes
As I [Dm]heard the angel [G]choirs
[G7]And [C]ever [Am]since that [F]lovely [G]day
She's [C]been my [G]heart's de-[C]sire
{eoc}
On a [C]day like this some [F]years ago
Our [C]children did ar-[G]rive
And our [C]love did grow
And our [F]pride did swell
To [C]see them [G]learn and [C]thrive
{soc}
Yes we [F]see for-[Em]ever [C]in their [F]eyes
As we [Dm]hear the angel [G]choirs
[G7]And [C]ever [Am]since those [F]blessed [G]days
They've [C]been our [G]heart's de-[C]sire
{eoc}
On a [C]day like this just [F]recently
I [C]saw my end in [G]sight
And my [C]life's been full
And my [F]life's been long
I'll go [C]gladly [G]into the [C]light
{sob}
All a-[Gm]long my love I've [C]seen the [F]light [Bb]sparkling [Am]in your [G]eyes
We've [F]found our [Gm]way through [C]thick and [F]thin . . .
I'm the [C]luckiest [G]man a-[C]live.
{eob}
{soc}
Yes I [F]see for-[Em]ever [C]in your [F]eyes
And I [Dm]hear the angel [G]choirs
[G7]And [C]ever [Am]since that [F]lovely [G]day
You've [C]been my [G]heart's de-[C]sire.
{eoc}
