And Jim you are right.
It's the song.
Or is it?
I genuinely don't know
I happened to hear a young man sing a verse of Moon River when we played a gig and I thought 'what a great tune' and it's not a bad lyric.
My heart surges for special tunes (Canyon Moonrise for example)
For me it's the tune rather than anything. But I'm not a singer.
