This song was written when I was in my early twenties I'm now seventy nearly 71 time goes by fast. I somehow managed to never find that special person that would last forever. When I got diagnosed with stage 3c cancer 8 years ago time became so important and how much time was left . Truth is no one knows but we should try to be the best person we can and be kind while we can because sadness and regret serves no purpose for those who are gone.
My Mom suffers from Alzheimers. When I was visiting her another residents family member walked past her door singing this song. How timely . Wonderful song. Brings me to tears.
After many failed attempts, I've met the person "I want to go through time with." In my heart, I wish there could be a timeline that would synch us up, in age, and let us meet when we are both very young. But... I am going to make every day count!! I love the quote that goes something to the effect of, "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away." ♥️🙏🏻🙏🏻
My Uncle passed away a few months ago. This song will always remind me of him. RIP Uncle Gene. You will undoubtedly be missed. I wished I spent more time with him.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I know how hard grief is. This song was my uncles favorite too. ❤ his name was Dusty. He was my best friend when I was growing up and I lost him when I was 14. My mom loved Jim Croce too. Her name is Tina but sadly she also passed 8 years after my uncle. I listen to this song when I need a good cry or if I need a smile. I hope you’re doing better now and I’m sure your uncle is keeping an eye on you from somewhere out there.
My ghost friend Calvin recently died from terminal cancer. This was the song he sang to me when I lost my grammie. She died from breast cancer. Now that he’s gone, I still remember him singing this song to me. Thank you Jim Croce. You will always be a legend.
If I could save every day with those family members whom I've lost, to save those with my brother before he moved to land down under. Life always keeps us busy but just sit and think about what life you've lived so far you realise that there's those who've impacted you in ways no one else would.
Sent this to my step dad when I was drunk. I apologized to him for being a dick growing up while I was deployed in the middle east. He said it made him tear up.
My dad got me started on Jim Croce when I was just a little kid I'm almost 46 now and to this day he is still one of if not my favorite artist of all time
Love has got to be one of the hardest emotions to come to terms with. I was madly in love with my wife for 35 years until she told me she no longer felt the same way. That was new years day 2023 and still miss her every day. I wonder if those feelings will ever go away. Probably not.
I love this song. If there was one person in my life who my soul is married to in this lifetime that I would send this song out to, this song would be for him. ❤️❤️🦋🌹🌷🕉️♓️❤️🔥♑️🔥🔥♾️🍀⚖️💝💕💫
Jim wrote this when he found out his wife was pregnant and he wrote it for his soon to be son. He died when his son was only 13 months old.. sad thing is the song is about not having enough time with his son
When I was a kid, my step dad made a tape with his favorite songs. I remembered all of em except one. And for the life of me I couldn't remember what it was. I'm half asleep with the tv on with an X-Men movie playing and this song comes on. I woke wide up. Eureka this is the last song!!! So I looked it up, saved it to my library and seen your comment. Crazy how things work out.
