As Matthew already posted, it was released by Anne Murray. But here is a very pretty version by Susan Jacks who is from my city of Saskatoon and who I knew. This beautiful soul with angelic vocals passed away last year due to kidney disease. She was part of The Poppy Family ( With her then husband Terry Jacks).
