If I Knew You

My girlfriend, Janet Mercer, gave me this poem that she wrote. She was 14 and I was 15 years old. I set it to music then. This song is probably among the first 10 songs that I had composed. Years later, when I had the TEAC-144 multi-track cassette recorder I made this recording using a "cello orchestra" with Casio keyboards. The recording dates from somewhere around 1983.
Tonality - 100%
Difficulty - Moderate
