A powerful female jim stienman type rock song with anti-abortion sentiments. If listening to the song makes just one woman think twice about the subject....and.... "DON'T TURN YOUR BACK ON IT BABY".....then it has been worthwhile!

Story behind the song
I wrote this song for our screenplay "One Life Too Many". It tells of a young woman who is about to have the life of her unborn baby terminated. The chorus screams "You can't go back on it baby".
Lyrics
A DAY TO REMEMBER
Isn’t this just a day to remember
With love all around us
And beauty that is boundless
Isn’t this why we keep on hanging on
A smile in the morning
A kiss without a warning
When the darkness closes in
Do we notice when the night begins
When the rain is falling down
You can’t see me crying-crying
Isn’t this just a day to remember
A blood drenched horizon
Where beauty is subsiding
Isn’t this when you feel you can’t carry on
To live like an angel
And die like a shadow
Is there really anyone here
Who can tell me when a life begins, please let me know now
Now the morals they have gone
And we shouldn’t steal the future anymore
chorus
You can go back on it baby
Don’t turn your back on your baby
There’s only you can change it
It is in your hands
Now please go back on it baby
Don’t turn your back on it baby
The one things that’s for sure
T’will be a day to remember for you babe
Instrumental break
When it comes down to our young
Can you tell me when the pain begins, I want to know now
When the devil’s work is done
Who will wash the guilt from off your door
Repeat 1st Chorus twice
