    If I remember correctly (I'm 67) this song is from the early 70s, maybe 1973 or 74. I was in High school at the time, and It was and is, one of the most beautiful songs ever.

    Asia and BJ. This should be the song you two listen to whenever you have any kind of disagreement. The two of you have a fantastic relationship, and I hope it lasts forever.
    I heard this song when I was a mere lad way back in the 2oth century during my teenage years. My only wish was to one day find someone who fits me like glove the way you two do.
    The next step is to play some romantic music. Here are a couple of suggestions.

I like also 70’s soul, because back instrumentals were often full orchestra, especially in Philly soul like this.
