An all time classic. This song has so much meaning and emotion.

My story with this song: I was dating a girl and had to move away once I graduated college. This is the first girl I ever loved. The first person who ever loved me. We made the distance work for a while by visiting each other.

Recently, the communication was fading and the relationship was not as strong as it was and I realized it's time to let things go so she can go live her own life and not be burdened by trying to fulfill both of us from hundreds of miles apart.

I ended things with her yesterday, but just because I did it on my own terms doesn't make it any easier. I still love her and want to see her one last time in person and let her know how much her love meant to me. After ending it I had so much more I wanted to say and thank her for. Instead, I just sent her this song. I hope she can understand.
