My boyfriend lives across the country and we are madly in love. He came to visit me and today he gave me a small round wooden music box that plays this song. He didn’t recognize that the music box played this song until I told him. It never hit me until now how much this song really shows what it’s like to be in a long distance relationship. The ache you feel for your partner’s embrace is so strong. It doesn’t help that neither of you can just drop everything to see each other. That makes everything go by so much more slowly. You need them and you can’t live without them. Like all long term relationships you can’t help but occasionally wonder if they are still yours, distance doesn’t make those thoughts any easier. You can’t wait to hold them again and you miss them every single second of every day.
