    Thank you Kris Kristofferson. Your songs walked me through so much of my adult life. The good times, the sad, the lonely, the broken, and the joyful, through it all you were part of it all.
    I will continue to listen and sing with you.
    Rest in peace.

    Do you still listen this beautiful tune in 2021 like me?
    Who's listening this in 2021?
    Memories of those far-off day?
    Memories tinged with sadness ?
    Reminiscences and Memories crowded your mind?
    Long lost friend?
    or heyday of your life?
    I want hear your stories.
    Leave your beautiful stories at my door
    I'll leave them for the one who waits behind.
    For the good times...

    This song reminds me way back when I was an innocent girl, not knowing what is love, how to love and be loved. In my generation of growing up, this song was popular amongst men and women when there's a gathering. I remember when one evening someone was singing this song serenading one of the ladies and I was like..oh my.. 🙃 and then years passes by, I became a woman myself, still young but I understand what's the meaning of the song 😊 love you Kris Kristofferson! Thank you for the good times ✌❤

    This is the perfect example of a great voice without a good vocal range. Extreme talent that you have to have an eye to see and an ear to hear. In the days we live in. Where every non talented a-hole can over sing the simplest of songs and get a standing ovation...this is a breath of fresh air. The fact that he was a " highway man" is even more impressive !

Always amazed, I admire him, because he is respecting the life of all people. I always I have tears in my eyes when I hear this song. The songs he wrights and sing have deep lyrics, they are clear & understandable. The riffs are flowing from his heard into his Finger. Amazing men he is one of the best singer/songwriter of the whole world.

    One of the most touching appreciative songs after a love relationship/love affair endet.
    I know this piece of art since I was a child (born in 1972) and without having understood the lyrics, I could literally feel what this song is about exactly. Still today I am convinced, love relationships could change like this to a friendship. This is a beautiful and touching petition against wars of roses.
