Takes me back to a summer day long, long ago. Riding our bikes to the ballpark for a pick-up game of baseball, listening to songs like this on a small transistor radio. Drinking a pop later and not wanting to go home as we watch the sky change to sunset... Sigh

[jerryprofe]

I've had the opportunity to play this with a local band called the River Street Band. Great tune! It's one of my favorites! El Profe.

いつも選択がディープですよね。初めて聞きました。

お気に入りアルバムに追加させていただきます＾＾

ラウンドテーブルっていう、かわいい系のバンドが歌ってるのが始­­めて聞いたので、イメージ違いますが、ママス＆パパスやこのひ­と­たちもいいですね！

One of the most beautiful and special songs I have ever heard!

[jerryprofe]

@wingnutwally I agree.

[Poccah39]

I often thought this song was quite profound-music and words- now I know why, he wrote this after accepting Jesus! And I believe God blessed it!

[Lloydhl]

@Poccah39

Amen to that!

[wingnutwally]

@Poccah39 I have always loved this song. I always thought it was very special. Now I know why!

@Poccah39 I suppose you believe in little elves at the bottom of the garden too

@captjake11 Knock it off. I don't want to disable comments for the video, but I will. Take your personal attacks someplace else.

Tommy James opened a Gideon Bible to the Book of Ezekiel and there was the description of what sounded like UFO,s ,eventually he was another time when he had the television on and Billy Graham was preaching and Tommy was saved,this song is about Jesus! 

[Mufaso1000]

I heard this was voted the number 1 song of the 60s.

[Bigum99]

What a beautiful song, like floating in the air

[igoditigodit]

I am starting a chapel and it will have this as the main theme song to the purpose.

Maybe today, when we look up, we will realize we are the creator.
