Lyrics:
Faraway from that life so young
that's when you used to know
Many dreams since then you've had,
have come and gone that might show
But stress don't you let it
Don't you forget,
trust you'll find your way to love
hope is what your heart is made of
And don't you forget it
don't you forget your way home
For that little girl
Hold on to your world
you're worlds apart
From first where life would start
understanding what it means to have got
nothing but your heavy broken heart
the memory of what used to be
with change comes responsibility
My mom played this song so much when I was a little girl. I didn’t realize she played it because we moved 16 hours away from all of our family & she was finding her way on her own. In her last days I played this song for her & burst into tears because I now have to find my way without her. This song hits in so many ways. Rest in Love Ma.
It’ll be fine Auntie she’s your Angel now! R.I.P. Jasmines momma! ❤😢
It’s will be okay. The Lord will never leave you or forsake you. Submit your requests to the Lord for he cares for you. Philippians 4:6
R.I.P To Your Momma! I Lost Mine December 2015 And Grieved Unhealthy And Ended Up In The Hospital For 8 Days!!! GOD Revealed A Dream To Me (Even Though I Am Not Worthy) Of My Mother Letting Me Know! She's With The FATHER And My Momma Is Still With Me!!! "My Grandmal & Mom Are Now Me, Siblings, Nieces, & Nephews GUARDIAN ANGELS!!!❤🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Chilllleeeee you done made me so misty eyed omg! I know that your mama is so proud you. May your mama rest in eternal paradise. Hold your head love 💕
Blessings ❤
You can hear Stevie Wonder’s influence all throughout this song. I love it so much
Yes!
Facts🥰
I remember he was on the Today show and that YT lady introduced him I thought she was going to jump his bones right there. All she could talk about was how handsome he was and how beautiful smile he had. I was like lady can you please let this man sing?
I was telling people this for years about that element. The cadence of Stevie is infused and lyrical arrangement. Glenn Lewis 1st album is a Neo Soul classic and must have.
@@TheSolution4Kickz Yes but we can talk about how fine he is though? Can we please do that?
I never realized how much I grew up taking this kind of musical art for granted. I truly miss the late 90's/early 2000's sound and feel so much.
Absolutely 💯
Completely agree ..just heard this song ata bar and totally forgot about it. I had to look it up youtube and play it in my ride . This is when artists sang from the soul and th lyrics were impactful
There were a lot of really good RnB artists and songs during the 90's and early 2k's. I think autotune came along and a lot of less gifted singers over used it. It was hot for a while, but when it faded it exposed the not so talented. By then guys like Glenn, Musiq and others got older and RnB was less popular to the younger generation. If you're as old as me (48) 70's and 80's kids grew up on RnB and made 90's and early 2k's RnB. We heard RnB in the clubs in that era. Kids these days aren't hearing that now in clubs. There used to be a wide range of black music on your favorite radio station then. Now it's mainly all hip hop. A genre I also grew up on but I appreciated both. I got a little long winded but that's only my opinion. I was young, in the air force, in Georgia 93-2000. It was a beautiful time to be in and see Atlanta becoming what it is. I got to this song through Jimmy Cozier She's all I Got mix. Great RnB TH-cam mix.
I definitely agree
Girl YOU & ME both! ❤❤
HAPPY 49TH BIRTHDAY

WTF are you talking about? This shit was rotating heavy when it came out.
it's not played to this day like other classics therefore slept on. tf are YOU talking about
@@gabihart2143 You "everything is underrated" weirdos act like every song in the world is supposed to be played all the time around the clock.
@@gabihart2143 right it's sad nobody no about this joint
Man I miss these days smh
I miss the 90s and early 2000's
The soul awakening period (1999-2007) was one hell of an era man.
Facts! The world heard great soul music on a mainstream level. No 808s no autotune.
Tell em bro 👊
@Indigogoddess1111 Stevens The TR808 is a drum machine with a very distinct sound often associated with Southern Hip-Hop.
@Indigogoddess1111 Stevens No problem. ❤
@@b.b.1989 THIS type of Era was called Neo-Soul & R&B. You can make one hit and be great. It was like during that time they just wanted to be heard. It was like poetry. I would do anything for this type of music to come back. The only one we have left is NEYO!!!
The Melody, The Harmonies, The Lyrics!!!! He was channeling Stevie with this joint.
I remember playing this in the car and my moms saying, "don't think I've ever heard this Stevie song before." Yeah... thought the same think when I first heard it.
the encouragement a man gives to woman... I miss songs like these....

Here in 2024. I was just a little girl when this song came out but now in my 20’s I need this song more than ever. ❤
I'm now 28 😂😂😂 my mom played this song religiously
Those tears in her eyes at the end always gets me ❤
@@stoneyhighhigh3677Do you all know the model's name in the video? I've been trying to.do light research to see what she is currently doing. I stopped seeing her & thought she had so much potential.
The models name is Kent Masters King she was an actress/model at the time and when she was younger @ThatGirl551

I knew this song was special at 10 years old. At 31, it’s still as pure as the first time I heard it
Same here
Sheesh didn’t realize this song was released in 2001, I just heard it in my barbershop like 10 years ago, thinking it was a new song then 😂 sheesh!
Same
I'm 37 same ❤
Yesss
This was the Neo-Soul era of the late 90s-early 2000’s. Glen Lewis, Dwele, and others. So smooth and melodic. And the love songs had a deeper meaning. Loved this type of music and shame that these artists didn’t get more shine. You can listen to this 20 years later and it still sounds fresh and better than anything they play on the radio today. Growing up being able to experience the music of the late 80’s-early 2000’s was a gift from God. They don’t make music like they used to back then.
Can't forget Maxwell too
@@yellowbill Yup. Maxwell was great!
Gordan Chambers, Donnie, Omar, Musiq Soulchild Valvin, Raheem Davughn, Eric Roberson. So many more.
They dont
But it didn’t get the credit that it deserved when it dropped. Too busy ” in da club,” etc
After my cousin died, me and his sister went through his laptop and this was the first song that played and we just cried our eyes out.. Damn i miss you cuz zzzzzzzzzzzz rest easy B ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I'm sure his soul was speaking to yours as you listened to this song.
@@DarrylBishopDJFlavaz thank you so much & very true!!
🙏
Damn, my deepest condolences. Y'all got me crying..
@@johnbchasechase5765 Thank you King ❤, feel better! This song is very emotional 😞💚
Tomorrow is my 42nd wedding anniversary. I won't forget it. RIP BELOVED HUSBAND!❤
That’s deep rip to him
So sorry for your loss sending my condolences 🙏🏽♥️🕊
Sorry for your loss. My condolences.
My condolences to you!
Happy anniversary ❤
Whatever happened to the Neo-Soul of the 00s (circa 00 - 02)? Such ambient, relaxing music just disappeared over the years.
unfortunately it didn't sell (not like winehouse or adele, lol smh) but it never disappeared! i'm here, you're here and countless others still listen to it. at that time, r&b needed an injection of soul. tony rich & d'angelo kicked it off in 1995-96. and the music was the best of the past & present, minus the stupidity & misogyny. and it was NEW music!!!! keyboards, REAL... bass, REAL playing!!! neo-soul will never die!!!!!!
*side note: musiq's album, soulstar, was one of the best of the last! if you haven't listened to it, do..., it's a banger!!!**
Actually Maxwell kicked it off.... but yeah. Agreed on all other counts.
thanks! but do a google search at very least.
Trap Music.
Yeah muzik and a lot of good music from 00-02
Who’s still listening in 2019!!! Good music never gets old!!!
Yesss
Right here... bought this album when it came out in Spring of 2002... every song on that album is a classic
Yep! This never gets old
REAL MUSIC LIVES FOREVER!!!!!!!!
OMG classic! I can't stop coming back to it.
Glenn Lewis was so underrated. World Outside My Window was the shit .
It really was, then again it still is!
One of the most slept on R&B albums of all time.
That’s facts!
Beautiful Eyes was the jam!
Yup my jam,i have this cd
I want Neo-soul back 🎵🎶🎶
Me too. 💯
We all do
@@ms.butterflylove3983 🤗🌹
You should tell Jazzy Jeff to pay his producers!
Miss this era ❤❤❤
This song, never gets old. A true masterpiece..
Closest to Stevie that I've heard...... and I've heard him live. 👊🏾
I agree!
Check him out on Slakah the Beatchild's song Number 1
I wish like hell Glenn was even more famous than he was. He's super talented
Hell yeah! But I gotta feeling he'll be back even stronger. Ly Glen
Handsome too
Yessss
As a bassist/keyboardist, this era, especially since this was considered the new Philly sound, Neo Soul, this was my prime era. Philly was Poppin. Had the luxury of playing in backing bands for Glenn Lewis, Jill Scott, Floetry, Bilal, Donnie (not Donnie Hathaway for those who don't know), Kindred The Family Soul, Jimmy Cozier, and a few others.
For a young black man who was a musician that loved chord progressions and theory, this era was pinnacle.
As a 215-er, I feel u! So PROUD of my city's music and musicians during that time!
Congrats man. I actually met the two members of Kindred (Fatin and Aja) at the Fairmont Southampton hotel in Bermuda where they did a concert back in about 2005 or so. After watching them perform as the main event as I went back to the room, my wife and I saw them at the elevator and complimented them on their music. I miss Neo Soul and real soul and R&B too. Classy music. Mint Condition, Musiq Soulchild, Donell Jones. Much better than that crap like Future, Lil Pump, Lil Baby, Migos, Quavo, Lil Wayne and Drake that dominate African-American charts nowadays.
This type of music will never die...this is my go to stuff if Im not playing Stevie or Michael Henderson, Norman Connors etc.
FIRE ERA
Donnie is one of the Greatest, Res from Philly is also!!!
I come back every now and then just hear the unity in this song 🔥
Still a hit, even in 2020. Can't ever Forget good music.
Still gives me the chills
I still remember seeing him at Essence Fest in New Orleans. It was magical❣️
He has a very beautiful smile ☺

This song is the epitome of "everything will be okay." Always feel better after listing to this.
Chanelle Davis I agree, but then I think the video looks like it might be a break-up song.
Chanelle Davis i like this song it remine of my daughter
since we just so happen to be here whats your instagram
and dont you forget it...
I feel better after listening to music that uplifts Jesus Christ! (I liked this song a lot too) :-)
I've always appreciated the scene of Glenn lying on the floor with headphones on & the classic records beside him. ❤🎧
That part !!
@DemetriaCalvin How many of these records are in your vinyl collection?
@@rasungod7257 I have quite a few in my CD collection. 😊 I haven't started collecting vinyl records yet, but I plan to. How about you?
My favorite part.
Yes!!!....Because that's exactly how I vibe at home also....especially in the middle of painting when I take a break...(I'm an artist)
I hear the Stevie Wonder influence on this bad brother. 👊
I’m 43 and this song still speaks and motivates me🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

Yessss it really sucks that EVERYONE ALIVE didn’t know this song…. Now this is what you call a MASTERPIECE!
#FACTS LOVE ME SOME GLENN
It got into the top ten back when music was making money. It was a hit🎉 Would of like more albums Glen I know it hurts (the 🎵 industry).
He had that look like he could have easily been a Morehouse College or Howard University Grad. That intellectually sexy look.
This song has so much nostalgia back to my inner child, teenager, and adult. All the things we go through while navigating through life.
I just said the same. Born 94 so this takes me back to when I had no care in the world & my mom, my everything, would have these classics on from hiphop to r&b . Her love for music went right to me. I hear songs like Mary j blidge “everything” & biggie “mo money” & I’m taking back to nearly my toddler days & vividly remember the days when these songs played.
Peace & blessings to you Queen
Well said.. real shit....
And the best comment award goes too LOL ...Damn well put tho 👍🏾
Yes we go through so much it's like a reflection back in time.
Nostalgia in the real world.
This video was on constant rotation on the VH1 Soul channel.
Memories
yeaaaaaaaaaa omg i kept my tv on that
This song goes to all the young women, especially nowadays.Never forget your way home, no matter what you've done. There's always someone who loves you. Especially God
❤
This made tears come to my eyes. Having some hard times with my parents, I miss them nonetheless and hope that we can make things right.

Why can't R&B sound like this anymore?
1One2standout1 I agree honey
It does. Listen to The Internet. You won't be disappointed.
Blacks own their own labels..... Then they sold out to the majors
Because black people stopped supporting our culture
Because of Rappers
He's vibing Stevie hard on this song ... Continue on young brother . Can't go wrong with Stevie .
You're absolutely right. This is One of my Favorite Songs.
WHEN WE STOP MAKING SOUL MUSIC LIKE THIS WAS THE BEGINNING OF THE END & WE ARE EXPERIENCING IT NOW!!!!!!🎤🎤🎤🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
Auto-tuned Drake and Future took over... unfortunately.
The record companies and execs at top are only interested in the quantity of green and not quality or the artist. It truly sucks. I’m glad we have TH-cam to reminisce.
THEY WANT MUSIC TO KEEP OUR PEOPLE DOWN IN OUR VIBRATION @@shatober9272
Plenty of good quality music still being made. Just not mainstream
I Miss This Kind Of Neo Soul Music
It was just called R&B back in my day . but yeah I here yeah .
This is not Neo soul.
After 20 years, two masters degrees, and looking up the lyrics, I think I just might finally understand the theme, to not let go of the dreams of our youth. The rhythm of the lyrics is next level.
nedaari1 YES!!!
Lol I looked up the meaning on google and your explanation was much clearer then what's online. Thanks
Lol..yep!
Degrees don’t mean shit you still working at McDonald’s 😂😂
That's what I was thinking 20 years
I miss music like this 😢
Glad to see a lot of 2024s here. Keep great music alive. ❤

❤BEAUTIFUL SONG 🎵 JUST LISTEN TO 🎶 ❤️ THE WORD'S TO IT
This is from an era where people had talent and didn't just sell soft porn.
My mom died when I was 16 and she used to listen to this song and I can remember her looking at me tearing up…. Never understood until now as a mother❤ miss you mom and thank you for this song. Lots of memories
Having had the pleasure of meeting Glenn back in my days in the Toronto R&B scene in the 90's, I also had the pleasure of hearing him drop "Don't You Forget It" live, way before ever released on his album. Glenn is a class act in every regard.
I was 12 when this came out on. Watched it/heard it on BET Jazz...It introduced me to NeoSoul and it changed my life. Through this I found hip-hop (Kweli, Mos Def, Nas, etc)...Miss these days. I'm turning 31 next month and I'm married with a 2 year old. Bumping this with her all the time. Good times, life is strange and moves fast, enjoy it!
Who's listening in 2024?❤🎉

This song is an automatic self-esteem and confidence booster. So refreshing!
tru
+Nina513 You want a self-esteem booster??? Listen to "Optimistic" by- "Sounds of Blackness"
+Nina513 now all they sing about in their songs is how to make other people feel bad about themselves

I love this video so much, I wanna cry, this is when everything was genuine and real. No cell phones so they missed each other aww

Tell em

Believe it or not Glen Lewis was project. He was amazing and should've gotten a signing deal with the record company. But, NEO SOUL wasn't the main focus in the music industry. So he was a project. Just like a lot of those one hit wonders in the NEO SOUL AND R&B category. Names like Tony Rich, Craig David, Mystic, Jerzee Monet the list goes on. But all them artists was projects for record companies. That means they give them $800,000 to do they thang and put out a album. Your one hit strikes the billboard you get a million to atlease 3 million. But they also release you with YOUR MASTER COPY and when your song gets played on radios and feature on soundtrack you get 25% while the label gets 75% or it depends on how much they agree with you on. PRIME EXAMPLE LOOK AT BAD BOY RECORDS. That's what happened to DA BAND, DIRTY MONEY, CARL THOMAS, LOON, CRAIG MAC, DIANTY KANE, YOUNG JOC ESPECIALLY. YOUNG JOC was a project for the SOUTH. Remember at one time the DIRTY SOUTH was taking over in the rap and JOC was DIDDY'S new project for the south. BAD BOY SOUTH. JOC got screwed so bad that he stooped to LOVE AND HIP HOP.
Reminiscing and will never forget
“Don’t forget where you are ain’t where you been, life’s lessons then made you into woman” My favorite part of the song to this day
Sabrina Avent I play this song every morning. While I get my daughters ready for school. Love this song

This will forever be my favorite neo soul song!! “Don’t you be afraid!” 🌻
This is R&B
@@gustavogiblani Nope , look it up. Google it. 🥰🌻
Musiq Soulchild, D’Angelo, Glenn Lewis, Jill Scott, Erica Badu, The Roots, Lauryn Hill, Amel Larrieux. The Neo Soul music era was full of talented artist/writers who sang with such raw emotion and I miss it!! Today’s R&B is definitely not the same. H.E.R, Jazmine Sullivan, Coco Jones, Ari Lennox and Sza is the closest thing we got right now. 😔
Facts
India Arie
Don't forget Summer Walker, Muni Long & Durand Bernarr
And Lucky Daye! His first album Painted was very much influenced by this era. He experiments with rock and blues, but r&b is his base, neo soul is one of his main influences.🩵
😩🔥🔥🔥🔥 this the type of music we need TODAY💯
I heard this song when I was with my ex. We was riding in the car together. It was an emotionally abusive relationship. I was so hurt and broken. The lyrics moved me. They really speak to me today. God knows I needed to hear this. That's why I love Him so much. He never gives up on us, and He is always trying to show Himself to us. Even when we are so far away from Him.

I'm listening in 2024. He was so underrated. Classic in my eyes. Loved this album.
His voice reminds me of Stevie Wonder
This song motivated me to move out of my home state with my son. I was beyond miserable but afraid of the unknown. My dad used to play this song a lot when I was younger. I had a dream he was whistling this song and I knew it was time for me to stop being afraid and take a risk. I absolutely love Florida besides the traffic lol.
Thanks for this. I’ve been saying I’m moving for 7 months to Florida.. time to move on . I appreciate you sharing your story
God bless. When you do the same, you get the same. Time is precious. Be proud of the power within you to move on.
God bless you. I wish I had that much strength and took that leap to relocate. My younger brother was not too pleased with me because he implored to leave because of the very limited opportunities in my state and he thought I was really smart as I had just finished my MBA within 1 and 1/2 yrs as opposed to the traditional 2 years it normally takes. I wished I had taken his heed. He was really smart himself. He was an Engineer.(R.I.H.).
🙏🏽🕊🙏🏽
When this came out i was about 15 and was living on my own. This song gave me so much strength to keep going . I never missed a day of school( except cut days) I had a after school job and had my first apartment. This use to make me cry because my uncle use to tell me the same thing but he passed aways about 6 years b4 this came out. I havent heard it in years but i needed it now To remember because now I have a 14 year old .
You are amazing. So so strong. Well done and I hope u realise how fantastic u are!
@@yehehe98 thank u
Stay strong
And don't you forget it
Keep winning, and remember god never gives you anything that you can’t handle.

Its Saturday, December 28th 2024. I can't remember when I heard this but I know I was a child In love with love and not having no business knowing what it even was. I'm 37 now.

That music that makes me feel so good inside!
When I tell a woman that I can love the way this song makes her feel, she smirks as if I'm feeding her soup. Then when it was too late, it I wasn't even in her horizon. Yes....this song moves my emotions effortlessly. This is on my "Emotions" play list. I'm an Aqua...we take form of whatever we put ourselves in.

This song became my life anchor when I was on my way to the hospital to give birth to my daughter. I was anxious and afraid, and the lyrics took me to a place of peace. Years later, I met Glenn Lewis at The Apollo, and I got to share my story with him. He was touched, and he autographed a pic for my little girl. This song continues to speak to me to this day.
I noticed something about some of the comments about him saying he should of been more famous. Which is true, I agree. However, I'm now seeing that if guys like Glen Lewis truly musically talented with a gift like music, you honestly wouldn't want to be famous like most of the mainstream artist who came, saw and got conquered by the music industry. I rather see him be more happy with his gift then him being famous.
TRUTH
Well said.
Well stated 💯💯💯💯
Facts those commentaries were based upon those who are into idolatry.
Well constructed comment
Glenn we still here for you in 2024 still
Seems like '03 was the last year of good music and fun...
RnB died after that generation.
actually was 04 with the Mario winans - i don't wanna know song....but u can still find some good music nowadays.just not on radio..
+Frank Fenixx Mgtow Producer's and money Has killed beautiful music & musicians. Tevin Campbell, Black Street, SWV. All gone because of producers
Yeah it was around 2004/05, with a couple of good tracks trickling into 06. Afterwards RnB became 'urban pop' , then EDM. You know things were bad when Lady Gaga, Bieber and Lil Wayne took over urban music.
+Vuyisile Juqula I know right?!.... Smh 🙁😢
Wow!! This song would grab a hold on me, especially back in the day. I was 30 yrs old, divorced with 2 girls. Decades later and everything is just fine 😊
Breaks my heart wide open. All I hear is pure love when I listen to this Masterpiece. ❤️
I like that... you're right my sista
Yes, and I have no idea what this song is really about, but I still feel the emotion.
Right real love I'm in love with another woman and don't know what to do smh life is crazy
So underrated ❤❤❤❤ I love This
Back when love existed.
David Craig look at divorce rates, and listen to message in the music for 2018 it’s nothing like what Glenn Lewis is saying.
Mcgyver B 😕
Mcgyver B & 25-30 YRS. PRIOR!

Mcgyver B. Right on! ...back when that was a word.😎
21 years later, I have not forgotten about this underrated classic. The 106 & Park days!
I love this song, bring this kind of music back please
pretty parker ahh lie

This kind of music went underground mostly.
I remember when this joint came out I thought it was a new Stevie Wonder song lol....
Glenn Lewis hit us over the head with this one👏🏾🙌🏾
The Stevie Wonder is strong in this one
+Ben Erban and musiq soulchild
+Ben Erban That's one of his biggest influences.
Most def
Yes sri!!! i was listening without viewing the video and I was thinking that the tone of the voice sounds familiar... Stevie we love you!!!!. (The Force)
Ben Erban that's part of what made me love his voice and this song. Real talk he look a dark version of Ginuwine and sing like Stevie wonder
No showing off, no bling-bling, no money throwing around, no bootie shaking, and still captivating as hell.
Shit call music 🎶 🎵 👌
Exactly
boom!
And don't you forget it
Simplicity sells
Boom
So 2016ago such memories
Another B.E.T midnight love classic. A lot of people slept on this brother here. They didn't know nothing about him, & he's a great artist. I love this song here.
I still listen 🎶 to this song ✊🏽🥃
In my mind's eye, my Father is singing this song to me. Happy 80th Birthday, Daddy. Love you desperately! - Your Favorite 🙏🏾❤💕🕊
That's so lovely.
Don't make me cry! ❤
crying tears of release from this pain finding my way home
Ashe.

With change comes responsibility...

I still lesten to this song when times get hard. It reminds me of where i am and where i came from...then i make a trip back home to remind me not to look back and to keep moving forward. This song remind me that everything is going to be okay.
It's going to be okay, somehow
That's beautiful.

After 15 yrs god knows where ….. I got my Daughter Back. The streets did their damage . This song was the vibration I always felt and sent out to the Universe hoping one day I would see her again..
❤🙏🏽
🙏💜🙏💜
Was this song about?
@@LaQuittaDecosey-l2sa young woman not being afraid of the world and knowing her worth
This song is still one of my all time favorites.
It's crazy how towards the conclusion that they were both on their way to each other's apartment and think "well he/she dissing me" I felt bad when she was riding the subway and started to cry. I wonder if this actually happened to anyone in real life
+Reggie Rodriguez I'm sure it's happened in real life to someone art immatates life
Heavy subject matter. Delivered exquisitely over simple r&b drums. 🗣️🎶🔥
Can someone please gather all these beautiful, wonderful, talented bruthas & bring them back to when music really meant something, sincerely, a fan of dying soul music, like a beautiful, dying flower that needs to be watered & nutured back into season, Thanks.P.S. These bruthas include: Glenn Lewis, Dave Hollister, Jimmy Cozier, Bilal, Eric Benet, Carl Thomas, Donnell Jones, & so many more
H Az thanks
you just nailed it perfectly we need all of them to breath life and talent back into the industry
miyamoto musashi, thx 4 the agreement
Decent singers all of them.
Tawasha Walker I saw him in Atlanta with trombone player Jeff Bradshaw and Algebra in February 2018. He sounds and looks the same
Damn this music era was one of the greatest early 2000’s
Omg, This song totally reminds me of leaving home for college. My parents letting me know everything will be okay. 🥰
Just remember all those that had limited success or one hit wonders with a hit, didn’t sell their SOULS. We must respect them for that
This song has so much meaning. Every father should stop and listen whether you have a little girl or a little man. I was 22 and with no kids when this song came out and I loved it then, at 35 the lyrics mean so much and I can't stop listening to the new found meaning. Thank you Glenn Lewis, I just dedicated this song to my daughter. I hope she listens to this song and take everything she can from the meaning.
👍
phillip ransburg I was 25 and LOVED this song! I still have the CD! Whats crazy its skips over this song because I played it so much.
Cornell Abrams lol. Good song
phillip ransburg Hear hear! I've had the very same reaction to this profound piece of music!
