Cover art for Love The One You're With lyrics by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

I'm not so sure about that; the lyrics are pretty ambiguous. Is the song about cheating, or is the song about letting go of your past relationships and moving on? It's hard to say, partly because the verses are at once short, sparse, and few. I myself CHOOSE to believe it's the latter; I'm aware of the free love maxims of the seventies, but I find it hard to conceive a song about adultery reaching such a level of popularity.
