I'm 60 and it is true you are always 17 in your hometown. I'm back again and it is a soothing feeling.

I just spoke with my son. My 19 year old Soldier Son. He is on his first tour in Afghanistan. It was an amazing phone call. I heard music in the back ground. I asked him what music that was. He told me it was this song. My tears flowed freely, yet quietly. I dont want him to know. hehehe, but I want to absorb every bit I can when I'm on the phone with him, this song was one of those things, over the horrible connection. My first phone call from my Baby, my Soldier Son. Thank you for posting.

@nightshade7206 I hope your son comes back safe and sound.

My 2 best friends are on tours in Iraq and Afghanistan and this song makes me think of them every time..
