    This is a tender ballad filled with depth and emotion. To say it is beautiful would be an understatement. The vocals and harmonies are incredible

    Listening to this beautiful ballad transports one in time to the 1970s, a most glorious decade indeed. ❤

    Love this song. Reminds me of a drive I took down the old Oregon coast road with a man I was falling in love with with each mile we travelled. From Vancouver, BC all the way to San Francisco and we listened to Dr. Hook a lot, when not setting loving eyes on each other. It was truly the most magical time of my life. At one point, going along the coast of the Oregon road, with no one in site and very few vehicles, he started to slow down to a complete stop, opened his door, reached down and picked something off the road. He then turned to me and with a quizzical smile and swallowing a lump in his throat, he handed me one of the most beautiful and perfect red roses that I had ever seen. We looked at each other with wonder and knowing that that red rose was meant for us. I still posses that rose and keep it pressed in a book for posterity and for the memories of a man whose love I will treasure and always remember driving down the breathtaking Oregon coast road and listening to Dr. Hook. 💕💜💘🌹
    So thank you so much for this wonderful song. It has always been one of my favs. I lost it along the way when moving so again, thanks for the memories!

      That's a beautiful story, BonBon. However, you tell us what happened to the rose, without telling us hat happened to the man. Any update on that?

      sunryse111 Oh curious one! Well...he has since passed on. We were engaged to be married but alas...it was not meant to be. Life is like that sometimes, isn't it?
      Now, let me be curious and ask, where do you find these old gems of music? Some are quite obscure. 😎

      A boring answer, I'm afraid ... I have a big stack of LPs and CDs. Oh, and an encyclopedic memory of the music of those long-gone days.
