Raw grief expressed eloquently. Most of us 50+ can relate, although I did feel better eventually. Hope David has come to know some peace about his father's passing.
I onced owned the cd,,,either this one or maybe it was the best of bread- cant remember-but i read it inside the jacket cover.You can also type this song into your browser and read about it that way. Yeah- Mike and the Mechanics- LIVING YEARS- A great song- i think lead singer is paul carrack- used to be the singer for Squeeze- Black coffee in bead? at least I think thats him? Anyways- both great songs.
@ednadurbin hi,just to let you know paul carrack sang tempted (by the fruit of another)on squeese...also carrack sang how long(has this been going on) by ace...and best of bread was the first album i owned in 73,and to me was my fav.band at that time.carrack shared vocals on tempted but you can get it on u tube...just a bit of trivia thanks....rocker
David Gates wrote this song about his father- A BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN AND SANG TRIBUTE!!!! I feel the same about my father - i miss him everyday. LOVE YOU FOREVER DAD!!!!
@ednadurbin where did you get this info from?"you may loose them oneday,someone takes them away and they don't hear the words you want to say"sounds to me more like someone who's still alive and could care less about what you think.i miss my dad alot also so i can relate. "Living Years" by Mike and the Mechanics is close to my heart.i did have the time to spend with my father and so that song just makes me think how lucky i was.

It is true. he wrote it about his father.

@ednadurbin Although the song is frequently interpreted as a romantic love song, Gates actually wrote the song as a tribute to his late father.

One of Bread's/DG's best, sung in a lovely way with a soft voice fitting the song.
I love it. Thanks G for sharing and chissykim for posting.
