One of the most magnificent love songs of the Seventies. As stated, it's gorgeously produced and incredibly moving. Underneath its shimmering horn and string arrangements, though, it's at its basis a clear, strong, and prettily-written composition with a can't-miss chord progression full of triumph.
To me, the meaning of this song's always been simple: a man afraid of commitment realizes his girlfriend's the one, and overcomes his fears to reach out, to tell her, and be her man.
Lol, too:
Today, while waiting for the bus here in New York City, I was listening to my iPod on shuffle. An R&B song I liked was playing. A sudden strong feeling came over me, and a voice within me said, "The next song is how X (guy I like) feels about you." The very next song was this one, by The Babys.
It matches my suspicions and I hope he and I reconcile from our fight and come together soon. It's what he wants and what I want. I hope he's as strong as Jack Conrad was while writing this song, and defeats his fear, and crosses the line of anger between us to do the right thing. I do care about him.

Great song.

Heather,
This song just sends me. So I guess we have something in common. I hope it works out for you. I am rooting for you...
