A little fun here.
Name the writers of this song. If you hear the melody and know the title of this song, you might be able to know it. There are two.
Here is a clip of this song.

I don't know who wrote it but it sounds like a song that is done by "Avalon" called "Take You at Your Word".
To: Bloody Sam Roberts
The song is indeed "Take You At Your Word".
The writers are British songwriter Paul Field and the late Nashville songwriter Grant Cunningham. Cunningham was killed in a freak fall during a pickup soccer game in 2002.
To: Bobby Chang
I did not know that. I do know is that I love that song.
Here is a sample of the tune as sung by Avalon.
