I filled out the song with more instrumentation, effects, textures, etc.
There is still an open verse for Ola or anybody else to fill in, and plenty of room on the choruses (especially the last) for more voices and harmonies.
Stems available on request.
Stretched and pitched multiple brass tracks from different songs to make a horn free-for-all at the end.

I wish that somebody with real drums could add them in place of the terrible keyboard drums I added at the end of this song. You can use Noah's drumless remix for mixing purposes: http://hitrecord.org/records/720075

Lyrics:
For You,
You know I’d do anything
I’d give into religion or turn away from God
To be with you forever is the only thing I want
But here I go again, I’m gonna turn out like my father
Tired and old and telling you again that I’m sorry
Sorry for the way you feel
Sorry for the way I still love you
You’re free to leave at any time
But if you leave this heart of mine, darling
I’m gonna follow you down
I know I made a big mistake
But letting go should never taste bitter
But bitter’s all that’s been on my tongue since the morning
But if you give me half a chance, I’ll impress you
I’ll smile at you when I get home
Instead of only when I undress you
I can be a better man and give you what you need to be whole
I’ll do everything that I can to occupy your heart and your soul
And I’ll follow you down

This song needs some real piano and drums if anybody is up for the challenge. The stems are included in the resources. Thanks.
I wish somebody would help me turn this into a duet by singing one of the melodies. There are two versions resourced below, each without one of the vocal melodies so you can take your pick which vocal track you would like to sing. The lyrics are also resourced below.
Let's do something with this. There are a few seconds of silence that precede the song for some reason (about 8 seconds).
Made a new mix and added piano.
A song I wrote for my wife five years ago. To celebrate our 5th anniversary (today!) I gave it a facelift with the orchestra. I hope y'all like it.
I am interested in adding some horns that match the organ parts; I think that would sound incredible.
Added some delta blues style guitar.
Here's the new REmix! There are strings, horns, pianos, cymbal crashes; the whole lot! It gets really good at the end.
This would be a good song to use for a video. It could easily be cut and looped for added length.
I've done a few vocal melodies for this but I'd like to see what you guys can do with it. Have fun with it. Do what you do!
This is such a cool song! I added some fuzz bass and a fuzz lead to round out the mix.
I've been on a bit of a fuzz bender lately. I hope someone can use this, maybe add some vocals.
Added vox, piano, and organ. Enjoy.
Let's get some vocals put to this song! You know you want to.
Alright, everybody's in on this one. Let me know what you think.

I would love to hear somebody try a new melody with this song. Here's the breakdown as I hear it:
Verse1 - 0:20
Chorus -1:18
Instrumental - 1:42
Verse 2 - 2:01
Chorus 2 - 2:39
Instrumental - 3:25
Final Verse/Outro - 3:44
I tried to keep it sexy while letting Kelly steal the show. My additions begin around 0:45. My favorite part is at 1:36.
Instrumental. Slow and steady and then picks up at 2:30.
Tried to take this in the original direction that Peff gave in his video. Let me know if I missed any resources.
Lyrics:
You - I saw you in a photograph
And you, you were happy
A smile you could coreograph
I saw it in a photograph
But I'm counting on the season to get it right
In you I saw a flickering of light
And you didn't know me
But I saw the future in your eyes
The element of sweet surprise
Now I'm counting on the season to make you love me
I opened my heart in a letter
I put it in a Christmas card (x2)
Then I sat alone and I read it
I never sent it further on
I couldn't send your Christmas card
So I'm counting on the season to find the strength
I put it in a Christmas card (repeated out)
