I loved this song so much that I just had to have it played at my fathers funeral in 1983 when he passed as the result of an automobile accident. The guy who sang it did not know this song but did a wonderful job. He also sang Country Roads for my Dad and it was beautiful too. Thank you Clint and rest in peace Dad!
I love this picture & the others that were taken at the same time. They give me the feeling that he's always there when you need him. He's where he belongs outside in the sun, some with his dog.Happy & peaceful,reflective.There's a bit of sadness but is outweighed by a sense of hope. I see these & wish I could disappear into the picture & be in that moment. I wish I had been alive back then. I like to think of him like this for always. I have a poster but wish I could find this.
this valentines day it will be 20 years my dad has been gone.. he loved this song and he was this kind of person..thank you for this wonderful memory you have given me...
John, we still miss you.. When I see an eagle or a hawk...I remember you. You still live on through your music and your fans..Hard to believe its been 12 years today since we lost you....
There is a hawk that hangs around every now and then. When he comes to visit I aways whisper - Hi John thanks for stopping by. I think he comes to visit all of us who hold him our hearts. Ok, now you know I am crazy, thats ok, it a JD crazy we all understand each other.
12 years ago this weekend we lost this wonderful, beautiful man. He is missed and loved by many all around the world. His music will live forever. John, I hope you know how much you are loved and missed.
You are so RIGHT. I think of this somg every time I remember my sister's death... she was 19-I was 13.....now i'm 50 and I remember it like it was yesterday. This song makes it bearable.
I posted the lyrics to this song- I thought they were very moving and this is not one of JD's better known ones- but I LOVE it- so moving- he sure had a way to express what we all feel!! Thanks Masassa. Sorry for the extra post of the beginning lyrics btw.
Time as Ive known it Doesnt take much time to pass by me Minutes into days turn into months turn into years They hurry by me Still I love to see the sun go down And the world go around Dreams full of promises Hopes for the future Ive had many Dreams I cant remember now Hopes that Ive forgotten Faded memories
Still I love to see the sun go down And the world go around And I love to see the morning As it steals across the sky I love to remember And I love to wonder why And I hope that Im around So I can be there when I die When Im gone I hope that you will think of me In moments when youre happy And youre smiling
Time as Ive known it Doesnt take much time to pass by me Minutes into days turn into months turn into years They hurry by me Still I love to see the sun go down And the world go around Dreams full of promises Hopes for the future Ive had many Dreams I cant remember now Hopes that Ive forgotten Faded memories
Thanks for this post

They played this song at my brother-in-law's funeral when he passed away at age 31. An untimely death like John's.
You guys are missed...

That a thought will comfort you
On cold and cloudy days
If you are crying
Still I love to see the sun go down
And the world go around
And around and around
