This song perfectly fits this prompt. I am using this prompt instead of today's prompt because once again, I have nothing for today's prompt. The lyrics of this song were written by the late songwriter Johnny Mercer. After Mercer's death his widow found some lyrics he had written for songs that had never been set to music yet. This song was one of those. She took the lyrics to Barry Manilow and asked him to compose the music for these lyrics, which he did. Barry Manilow's version was released in 1984. My favorite version is this beautiful version sung by Henry Mancini's daughter. Monica released this version in the year 2000.
