| England Dan & John Ford Coley – I'd Really Love To See You Tonight Lyrics | 3 years ago |
| This song reminds me of the love of my youth. It used to play on the radio when we worked together. I got to date her intermittently several times over several years. To me, it's about wanting to be with that special person and being willing to take what you can get, even if its just watching tv but always hoping for more. | |
| Dave Loggins – Please Come To Boston Lyrics | 5 years ago |
| when I hear this song, I always remember hearing it decades ago and picture me dreaming of being with the love of my youth, yelling "I love you" down a snowy valley holding her and listening for the echoes. A beautiful picture of a memory in my mind's eye. As in the song, it didn't come to pass. | |
| Jefferson Starship – Runaway Lyrics | 5 years ago |
|
This song is very special to me. I remember hearing it on FM while looking at the girl I loved. The lyrics are perfect for how I felt about her. I'm sure she suspected how I felt, but I could never get as close to her as I wanted and I don't think I ever confessed my feelings. She was never quite that interested in me and I feared telling her my feelings would push her away. I would have given anything to put my arms around her run and run run run away and I loved her like the Sun. |

| Don Henley – The Boys of Summer Lyrics | 5 years ago |
|
The love of my youth was always just out of reach. Although we enjoyed each other and had fun and laughs, I always felt she didn't want me like I wanted her. There were always "Boys of Summer" to whom I'd always lose her. I never made a connection between this song and her until I started working near her hometown and hearing this song often on SiriusThe Bridge at work. I'd think of her daily when driving by her hometown. I occasionally drive by her old house (even though I know she's not home) trying to coax out another memory but I think I've got all I'm going to get. But I can see her, brown skin shining in the sun and remember wishing I could keep her. After hearing the song at work a few times and pondering the lyrics, I decided I was going to show her "what I'm made of," and see if some spark remained after all these years. There seemed to be too many coincidences that led me to that point to ignore. However, I realized she already knew what I'm made of and trying to show her now is pointless. This realization makes me feel the story teller is setting himself up for failure. The streets are empty and those boys are gone, but she's not home none the less. Even without that competition, she's still not all that interested. Never was, never will be. After all these years, "Summer" has changed from a season of a year to a season of life. Sadly, that's passed also. I'm sure there'd be "Boys of Fall" to whom I'd lose her now. But I can see her..... |
