Great love songs shouldn't need explanations, but you have to provide one anyway

I met her in The Bot/The Botanic Inn. She was as pretty as a pin, on the rebound, yet happy, lighthearted and carefree. I was big and awkward, she was perfect and petit. The one night we went to a nightclub she let me do the dancing- she just stood on my toes and put her arms round my neck. I bought the Gram Parsons cd round about when she kicked me into touch. If it had been vinyl Iā€™d have worn out ā€˜love hurtsā€™.

Thanks @Lazarus I went out on a limb there, purely for the good of the forum

Real men donā€™t fear love mate

I wouldnā€™t know. And Iā€™m man enough to admit it

Great song, by two of the genuine greats of country. Thereā€™s a lot more to their story apparently that will ever see the light of day, and so it should be. The magic of love. Hereā€™s her tribute to him, still in love today I would bet. ā€œIt was in the wilderness and the canyon was on fireā€.

The forum needs a bit of love, even unrequited love will do.

Fuckit, thereā€™s the night gone now. Thanks mate.

Whereā€™s the explanation Mike? Man the fuck up.

The wife turned 50 on Monday

Ah well, you could forgive most things, not turning 50 though.

What a song.
