funny how the songs written 40 years ago are simpler than songs today, but just as (if not more) poignant. songwriting hasn't advanced in 45 years.
i like this song because it's more than "i'm so sad we're broken up"--this guy only wants what he can't have. as soon as she falls in love with him, he wants out.
"But now that I surrender
So helplessly
You now wanna leave"
"Before you won my heart
You were a perfect guy
But now that you got me
You wanna leave me behind"
