The lines with "reckless pride" and "shutters on this heart of mine" tell the key part of this story.

@mfrerkes you know it’s funny you mention the melody between the strings and the piano because that is the thing I remembered most about this song.

So try having this tune or melody in your head for 27 years without knowing who sang it… For the past three days now I’ve had the song and constant repeat and yes I can resonate with this song perfectly
