    Heart beats fast
    Colors and promises
    How to be brave
    How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
    But watching you stand alone
    All of my doubt, suddenly goes away somehow
    One step closer
    I have died everyday, waiting for you
    Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years
    I'll love you for a thousand more
    Time stands still
    Beauty in all she is
    I will be brave
    I will not let anything, take away
    What's standing in front of me
    Every breath, every hour has come to this
    One step closer
    I have died everyday, waiting for you
    Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years
    I'll love you for a thousand more
    And all along I believed, I would find you
    Time has brought your heart to me, I have loved you for a thousand years
    I'll love you for a thousand more
    One step closer
    One step closer
    I have died everyday, waiting for you
    Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years
    I'll love you for a thousand more
    And all along I believed, I would find you
    Time has brought your heart to me, I have loved you for a thousand years
    I'll love you for a thousand more

    It remembers me of my best part in my life when I traveled the world and I listened it when I start missing someone or something. And now I let it play to get the feelings back. It's a really familiar video for me and sometimes I let it play and take time just for myself to let feelings out when I need it.
    Thank you for your beautiful guitar skills and helping me just taking for myself

My friend pass away Due to Covid-19 and this is one of his Favorite song. before he pass away he said to me "there are still more to live, if you do Suicide, it doesn't end the pain it passes to someone else" and now here i am.

When i listen your arrangement first time my mind is screaming: "You must be good like he". And I still listening this ("Let Her Go", "Nothing Else Matters" and "Say You Won't Let Go" are my favorites) arrangement ^^
    Thank you so much for such wonderful performances of popular and liked songs.
    Keep playing because you do it wonderfully, I love your arrangements and you were my first role model that I wanted to imitate
