Thank you to Tom. This is my all-time favorite song, I'm so happy to see a new reaction to it. I think the title is not about the past relationship (sad/happy memories) but is about making a promise to be there for the ex-partner in the future. "If you ever need holding, and no holding back, I'll see you through... sky blue (good weather/good days) and black (the bad days)." Being there for someone through the sun and the rain. It's almost like saying wedding vows to someone even though you are no longer in a relationship with them. Really powerful lyrics, this song means so much to me. Thank you for the reaction.
Its my confession to my estranged children and ex-wife. I was very brash. But i recently sent this song to all 3 of them. The healing is now beginning.
Jackson is one of the all time greats

Beautiful, deep, poetic. Love and loss, part of the human experience.
Sure, love and loss is part of human experience! The loss is difficult to accept though!
My favorite Jackson Browne song!!
I looked for the opposite of my first wife when I married again and we have been together 34 years.
I married a perfect wife - perfect woman. This song for me is about the imperfect woman years before.
