Lyric discussion by gabbagabbaheygirl 

i'm depressed by the fact that i am like the only comment on most arthur russell songs (especially this one) but once i was talking to a friend online and they noted how sometimes you actually understand a line of arthur's in a song and it just....hits you. like right in the gut and then you want to cry. this is one of those songs for me, there's just something magic in there.

tldr, this is the only love song that matters tbh

@gabbagabbaheygirl I totally agree with you, I listen to this song in the car and just let go and feel it, tears come to my eyes. But happy tears, tears because you know life is fleeting and this beautiful moment he's describing will eventually be gone no matter what.
