Central Park Memories was written with my friend, Eric Reinhardt, who is from New York. A lot of my piano, flute and music therapy studies were in New York, where I always wanted to live. We created this song to reflect on a couple’s love in New York’s Central Park.

Central Park Memories
(Eric Reinhardt, Angela Falco)
Hand in hand
Arms swing like children
Smiling from ear to ear
Laughter on sidewalks
Not going anywhere
Empty Eighth Avenue
Drawing us closer to our destiny which is here
Quietly listening
Here comes the sun over Sheep’s Meadow
Hard to believe we’re standing here
in the heart of Manhattan
You can hear traffic not going anywhere
and just for this moment
It all feels so distant but clear
We take a deep breath
Central Park Memories, a time not so long ago
Of horse drawn carriages rounding the park
Instrumental
Light snow begins
Light snow begins to fall
Drawing us closer to our destiny which is clear
A life together
Ah ... Central Park Memories
Arms swing like children.
