It's just a beautiful, sad song.

Regret and "what ifs?" are always painful, and in a romantic context, often-times unbearable.

There are so many emotionally powerful lines here.

My favorite being "Like a break in the battle was your part, in the wretched life of a lonely heart."

That part pierces me every time.

A woefully under-appreciated classic in my mind, and absolutely one of my very favorites.

Thank you, Chrissie.
