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.
