    These lyrics always make me sad. It's the ultimate broken dreams song. Some people are so strong and want to get to higher levels with the person they love. But they choose somebody that is broken, and they stick to level nomansland.
    Attachment disorders can be very disruptive and this situation of powerlessness, broken dreams and returning to old patterns that you wanted to escape from is very sad. It's in my all time top 10. You sang and played it very beautiful.

    Lots of negative talk from my generation that musical talent no longer exists; thank you so much for proving them wrong!! Not only did you nail the music and singing, but you somehow managed to capture the essence and passion of the song.

    In 1969 I loved a girl , from afar , with lime green hair. All the other girls hated her, I admired her as she raged against the 60's machine. I don't remember her name and I don't know where she is today, but you bring back fond memories of that beautiful soul who expressed her mind of clarity for which no one else could see but me. I was too shy to approach her then, but later found that she was in love with me from afar also. Follow your feelings, accomplish your dreams , you only have one life and chances sometimes only come once.
