      I've never liked the "til death do us part" segment of the marriage. The kind of love you and your husband had didn't die with him, and you never really parted with him. After almost fifty years, he's a part of you. One that's going to last forever.
      Everlasting Love. Like the song says.

    I remember hearing this song for the first time in the spring of 1977, on the brand-new stereo system my parents had bought in March of that year. The song was one of several disco tunes that was part of a 'disco hits' collection LP. Great song, one I've not forgotten, and an interesting mix of pop, rock and disco. It makes me pine a little bit for the distant past.

    I always thought this was Donna Summer, until I heard him say "Girl," so I looked it up... Wow, 1974; I was 5.

    Oh my goodness!!! Carl, wherever you are, please let me tell you I was in love with you the first time I heard this song. My local radio station in Seattle took many calls from me requesting they play it. I called so often each time slot DJ knew me by my first name! Such a happy request you just knew the girl would take him back, right?? Fav song of all time, my dear man. THANK YOU! 😘
