All That We Need (McAndrew/Testa)
Verse 1
Though miles and fathoms lie between us
Pain so great when we're apart
You know deep secrets of my being
And I, the inner secrets of your heart
Verse 2
We surely soon will cross the ocean
Now not long 'til we depart,
One thing that can't be touched by distance
Is your eternal presence in my heart
Chorus 1
All that we need, is the joy of sharing the dawn of a brand new day
While all we need feel is love
Verse 3
And when we look and search around us
Glowing embers burning bright
My mind's eye throws me your reflection
That glows and turns my darkness into light
Chorus 2
All that we need is love that burns bright within our hearts
While all we need feel is that love
Middle 8
From those distant chains that bound us
Senses reeling, true love empowered us
Chorus 3
All that we needed was
love to stir us, make our hearts dance joyfully
Verse 4
Through miles that lay between us
And the pain of being apart
There was not one thing on this earth that could reach between our hearts

Hey guys,
Lovely to see this song completed, it's been a while :). Really nice chords in there, Nick.
I can't help being super impressed with the original performances- guitars, keys, slide and Steve's heartful vocals.
Nick - this must have been a beast to mix, with all that instrumentation. To my ears, the snare could have drier, but it's a matter of personal taste.
I liked the LANDR master better, sounds more organic/warm.
UPdate: Nick, I like your original master too!
Super!
Andy
