    And I 💯💯💯💯 agree that today's music doesn't hold a candle to 70s,80s and 90s music.

    This video is from 1994, but this beautiful song was actually written by Dan Hill
    much, much earlier, in 1973. It was first released in 1977. It went to #1 in
    Canada and hit #3 on the Billboard Charts in the U.S.

      Yep he's Canadian as well. He didn't gain much popularity in the states for some reason. Except for this song. Tell you what when I first heard this I had to stop my vehicle because it really got to me at the time as I'd just broken with my GF and it was not easy to deal with. It is still one of my favorite songs of all time because he really got into it (and nobody but Dan has made a rendition I mean why even bother?).

I miss his voice, I miss him holding me, I miss him loving me, I miss everything about him. I wish that he was here with me. We have an 8 year old son together and he misses him everyday. With a heavy heart and tears in my eyes, my husband is no longer suffering I will love and miss him dearly. This song hits close to home and touches my heart so deeply 💔 I don't know if I will ever be able to go on without my husband. He was the love of my life! RIP my love.

    You ask me if I love you
    And I choke on my reply
    I'd rather hurt you, honestly
    Than mislead you with a lie
    And who am I to judge you
    On what you say or do?
    I'm only just beginning
    To see the real you
    And sometimes when we touch
    The honesty's too much
    And I have to close my eyes and hide
    I wanna hold you 'til I die
    'Til we both break down and cry
    I wanna hold you
    'Til the fear in me subsides
    Romance and all its strategy
    Leaves me battling with my pride
    But through the insecurity
    Some tenderness survives
    I'm just another writer
    Still trapped within my truth
    A hesitant prize fighter
    Still trapped within my youth
    Sometimes when we touch
    The honesty's too much
    And I have to close my eyes and hide
    I wanna hold you 'til I die
    'Til we both break down and cry
    I wanna hold you
    'Til the fear in me subsides
    At times I'd like to break you
    And drive you to your knees
    At times I'd like to break through
    And hold you endlessly
    At times I understand you
    And I know how hard you've tried
    I've watched while love commands you
    And I've watched love pass you by
    At times I think we're drifters
    Still searching for a friend
    A brother or a sister
    But then the passion flares again
    And sometimes when we touch
    The honesty's too much
    And I have to close my eyes and hide
    I wanna hold you 'til I die
    'Til we both break down and cry
    I wanna hold you
    'Til the fear in me subsides

    My father loved my mother so much!! She lived to be 84 and passed away from Alzheimer's.. We kept her at home for as long as we could, but the last few months she was in a nursing home. He would stay the entire day with her. And then four years later my father passed away from congestive heart failure at 89. They loved each other so much. My daughter, granddaughter and I took care of both of them in their home. We'd love them so much. My father was like a father to my granddaughter. He got to see her go off to college, but passed away right before she graduated. We were so blessed to have them ❤️

      My husband was in music sales and not only sold Mr. Hill's records but met him several times.
      He also lived in the same town as we did. I met him quite by accident at a fishing store. Both my husband and he were looking at fishing rods. What a thrill.

Sometimes, we don't need rush love just like the singer we should always think first before we decide to open our hearts who are ready to love. May God bless us, He is love and someone is meant for us not now but next day, month, years or even decades. Don't stop praying and trusting God folks.

  • @ppunch7050
    @ppunch7050 6 років тому +273

    I used to thing this was a cheesy love song before I heard the backstory:
    "In an interview with ANC's 'Headstart' on Thursday, the Grammy winner recalled being 'madly in love with a woman' when he penned this song, but that love was not reciprocated.
    'She was interested in another man, so that was breaking my heart. So I thought I needed to write a song that would capture her and win her over-that would be so passionate in a sense that she’d see that I’m the only guy for her,' said Hill.
    'I wrote her the song and I played it over the telephone, and she said ‘that song is just too intense for me. I’m going to the States with the football player.'"
    And I gained a new respect for Dan Hill and this song. He poured his heart out, believed every lyric, and in that context, not cheesy at all. Sometimes you think, "oh they're just saying words on paper to try and purposely melt hearts", but after hearing that, wow, that shit came straight from the soul and was 100% sincere.

    • @anakina1
      @anakina1 6 років тому +9

      She said he was to intense and serious. He later gave the song to a producer I believe who crafted it in the fashion presented here. He did not want to do it, but relented and became famous. She broke up with the football player.

      @mr2del 5 років тому +7

      It is sad that the lady didn't choose Dan. Then again, that could likely be said for both genders reaching out to somebody of the opposite gender. This kinda speaks on my now ended love for a girl I met at a workplace. We were total complete opposites. I was nothing she was looking for. She wanted muscles. It's something I didn't have and couldn't get. Since being rejected by her harshly and plainly, I totally walked away from love. This includes a time a girl I never saw or knew saw me in high school during my senior. I rejected her out of pure anger towards that girl I got rejected by. That other girl found somebody else. I'm doing fine now. I still think about those two girls, but I won't be pursuing either one of them. Life goes on, and this kind of music needs to come back ON OVERDRIVE! By the way, thanks for sharing this.
