      Oh wow! Please accept my condolences. We just went through something similar. Mummy died the day before my sister's birthday and 11 days before mine. She loved Anita and this song in particular. We're sending her off in style and with this, her theme song, Tuesday.

    38 years ago, I was 18, in my last year of high school, and got married. This was our wedding song. I was lucky enough to have been working for Ms. Bakers''''''. He sadly passed in 1994 when he was too young. I shared the story with her and told her about a gift she had sent to the office. I will always love this song for the rest of my life. It was a sunrise and a gift. I didn't even know our wedding song. It was one of his gifts to me. Amazing music, and what a voice and strong woman. I felt awful sharing her lol when I answered the phone I just knew it was her that voice I scared her and felt awful amazing women and her mom as well. He was so happy I understood him. That line nails me every time I don't judge him. Oh, he was so happy, and I was happy seeing him so happy and feeling love for him. I couldn't save him; however, I will always have this tune

    I believe I understand WHY Anita decided not to perform as much after Walter's actions by such a deep commitment by Anita to him and the manner in which she loved, respected and revered him. It's a hurt and betrayal that is incomprehensible. Yet, Anita what you have is a very rare Gift. There is only 1 Anita Baker! Please, for your life and love sake, return to share more of you with those others who love you immensely!😢❤😊

    Giving You the Best That I Got lyrics © Kanjian Music, Warner Chappell Music, Inc.
    Ain't there something I can give you
    In exchange for everything you give to me
    Read my mind, you make me feel just fine
    When I think my peace of mind is out of reach
    The scales are sometimes unbalanced
    And you bear the weight of all that has to be
    I hope you see that you can lean on me
    And together we can calm the stormy seas
    We love so strong and so unselfishly
    And I tell you now that I made a vow
    I'm giving you the best that I got, baby
    Yes, I tell you now, that I made a vow
    I'm giving you the best that I got, honey
    Everybody's got opinions
    'Bout the way they think our story's gonna end
    Some folks feel it's just a superficial thrill
    Everybody's gonna have to think again
    We love so strong and so unselfishly
    They don't bother me, so I'm gonna keep on
    Giving you the best that I've got, baby
    They don't bother me, said I'm gonna keep on
    Giving you the best that I got, listen, baby
    Somebody understands me
    Somebody gave his heart to me
    I stumbled my whole life long
    Always on my own, now, I'm home
    And the weary mind is rested
    And I feel as if my home is in your arms
    My fears are all gone, I like the sound of your song
    And I think I wanna sing it forever
    We love so strong and so unselfishly
    And I made a vow, so I tell you now
    I'm giving you the best that I've got, listen, baby
    I bet everything on my wedding ring
    I'm (giving you the best that I got)
    Givin' it to you, baby.
