My daughter chose to have this song and video played at her funeral 6 years ago. She was 19 when she died…cancer. Our last moments together were exactly this. Even more weirdly our family business was working with wool so we really felt that this video was made for us. I miss her so badly x

I’ve never seen that video before.
It’s very special and so simple.
