    I can not explain the deep feeling of melancholy, and loss of my years gone by when I hear this song. One of the many Wonderful songs that remain In My Soul.

      Yes the melancholy bitter sweet sadness of good times gone by. You know what helped me was I learned how to play acoustic 6 sting guitar. I just started playing for my own enjoyment. Then I bought a amp and microphone and just started singing the songs. Now I get to play for others occasionally at parties or an open mic night a a bar or club. It is soul satisfying to be able to play the song when you want to. And singing it adds a whole new dimension to enjoying it. Very surreal.

      Exactly! That's the big difference in singers back then & now. These days a singer can sound great on a CD but then you hear them in person and they're awful and out of tune. Some of today's singers have no talent at all.

    This song will be 45 years old this year. It stands the test of time. We baby boomers had the greatest time. Our parents were able to afford homes , we didn't have the internet , we played records and communicated with each other and the summer seemed endless. Now we are parents and grandparents. You don't hear sounds like this on the radio anymore. I told my son to listen to this song. I 'll bet in 45 years no one would remember Ariana Grande!

      We are rare ; ) Our heads can be filled with wonder and seeing, but it does get hard at times finding those who see the same wonder, beauty and wisdom.
      To love, is to live!! There is no better way in life!

    This song gives me goosebumps. It came out when I was an adolescent. Like a lot of people, I didn't really compute all of the lyrics, until later in life. Then I saw Phoebe Snow in an interview describing the motivation for the song. It's about her love affair with a married man. That took something away from the song for me -- I'm judgemental about that kind of thing. But, I still love Phoebe Snow's genius. Besides, she's human. Sigh.

      Thank you very much for sharing that; it really doesn't surprise me at all about that. As Human Beings, none of us perfect, even though I would doubt that I would even feel comfortable messing with a married woman.

    One of my favorite 1970s songs and I was born in February of 1978 and they most likely played this song in the late 1970s early 1980s. When I play this song and I have a big smile and a big cry and it is so well written and if I lived in 1974 and I would go out and buy the album at K-Mart or Sears. I picture of me riding in a 1975 Ford Econoline or Dodge Tradesman Van and having the radio play this song.
