    Origin of the song in Mark Slaughter's own words. “That song was written about a girlfriend who I went to high school with. I remember I came back from touring and couldn’t get a hold of her. So I asked a friend and he told me he hadn’t seen her. The next thing I know, he calls me back with the news that she had passed away and the funeral was the next day. It was one of those surreal moments. I went to her funeral and it inspired me to write a song about letting go. There’s a real sense of composure in going through those life events that I’m always very conscious of in my music. Seeing what it does for other people is why I continue to write.”

      Always could relate to this song. Played it at my wife's funeral 3 years ago. Wasn't a dry eye in the house. The song fit our lives. Was the best 35 years I could ask for. Our favorite song.

    Imagine being in your 20's in the 1980's. Power ballads were everywhere on the radio.
    Luckily, I was born in '62. Truly, the 80's were the best time for music.
    I just lucked out.

    And to think Mark used to give guitar lessons before someone heard him sing and ended up bein the singer for The Vinnie Vincent Invasion. So underrated. His power, emotion, control. This song was written for a girlfriend he found out passed away while he was on the road. He asked a friend about her and he said he hasn't seen her for awhile then called Mark back with the news of her passing and the funeral was the next day.

He is an amazing person and WOW !!! what a voice, to sit next to him to hear his twice a day in class, he was our only natural tenor, something some fans don't know is he sang in a barbershop quartet with myself and 2 other members of the schools men's choir and competed in All State Choir in 1981, I always loved his ballads.

    Thanks for doing this one. This song has always been one I come back to. It put Slaughter on the map. The band blew up big in the late 80’s and early 90’s, plateaued for awhile and then plummeted after the death (Car accident) of their lead guitarist. Mark Slaughter has one of the great voices ever, and, even though I love it, I often forget just how good he is. If you want another great song of his to review, check out Days Gone By. The song theme is very similar lyrically as well as musically.
