Story Behind the Song
This is from my personal experience of dating, getting married, then separated and divorced. The hardest but most rewarding part is maintaining or establishing your own identity through all this, and finding your own happiness.
Lyrics
Seems like forever since you've come and gone
I still remember nineteen eighty-one
The dog days of summer in the lazy heat
Straight out of nowhere you would rescue me
Settled in a modest east end neighborhood
Swore that I'd always treat you, best I could
Gave you a diamond, and a solemn vow
One's green and tarnished, the other broken now
Guess I never let you, tell me things were wrong
You know I won't forget you but I've
Come a long, long way - long way from you
After the winter of our discontent
Drafted up a legal binding document
Signed with a witness my name in black
Knew from that moment there's no turning back
Many times I almost said I'm sorry
Something would get in the way
You can call it pride, but
at least I tried to meet you halfway
Some call it courage others cowardice
No shame in thinking there must be more than this
The man in the mirror with a touch of grey
Smiles as he's saying you've come a long lon way
