More Michael McDonald
I Keep Forgettin' (Every Time You're Near)
What a fool believes
Yah Mo B There
Sweet Freedom
Our Love
I take this to be a song about a broken engagement. "said it was forever" "so many promises." There is a line that says that the couple in the song were NOT married, but "forever" doesn't sound like just socializing, so I assume the song is about an engagement
Split up of couple in love affair, basically. I think the vocals on this, best ever from Patti Labelle, and she seems to bring out the best from Michael McDonald.
