Where Has The time Gone?

I wrote the song below for my high school alumni.  My high school friend Glenda (and life time friend) sang a duet with me at the banquet.  Meeting with our classmates, some of which I haven't seen for many years was an extraordinary experience and one I will never forget.

I wasn't happy with the results of Peyton's portrait so I made a few changes. Even though the portrait is kind of surreal I took some of the yellow from her face, added some color to her lips and made her hair more dimensional.
