  • In this archival video from December of 1980, John is on the Late Night Show with Tom Snyder. We see the first performance of Perhaps Love, which shows the vulnerability that he was experiencing personally and professionally at this time.
    "Perhaps Love"
    Perhaps love is like a resting place, a shelter from the storm
    It exists to give you comfort, it is there to keep you warm
    And in those times of trouble when you are most alone
    The memory of love will bring you home
    Perhaps love is like a window, perhaps an open door
    It invites you to come closer, it wants to show you more
    And even if you lose yourself and don't know what to do
    The memory of love will see you through
    Oh, love to some is like a cloud, to some as strong as steel
    For some a way of living, for some a way to feel
    And some say love is holding on and some say letting go
    And some say love is everything and some say they don't know
    Perhaps love is like the ocean, full of conflict, full of pain
    Like a fire when it's cold outside or thunder when it rains
    If I should live forever and all my dreams come true
    My memories of love will be of you

      I'm always pleased when even the very young have come to know who John Denver was and appreciate him and his music. Thank you for helping to keep him alive. From a die-hard fan who got to see him in concert many times. Oh and what a treat it was!

    Vulnerability experienced is a human emotion. John Denver wrote from his heart. It is also his own favorite song that he wrote, as it was Annie's favorite John composition. Thanks for posting this ! Hope it has many viewers!

    He was talking about it being on the "new album", which it wasn't. The next album was Some Days Are Diamonds, June 81, which RCA made him do and it wasn't released until the Seasons Of The Heart, Feb 82, which John wanted to be the next album. RCA, imo, should have let him release Seasons of the Heart. Though the melody doesn't sound finished on this clip.

      The album he referred to is the one RCA rejected, unfortunately.
