He came from somewhere back in her long ago
The sentimental fool dont see
Tryin hard to recreate
What had yet to be created once in her life

She musters a smile
For his nostalgic tale
Never coming near what he wanted to say
Only to realize
It never really was

She had a place in his life
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
Hes watching her go

But what a fool believes he sees
No wise man has the power to reason away
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
And nothing at all keeps sending him...

Somewhere back in her long ago
Where he can still believe theres a place in her life
Someday, somewhere, she will return

  • Michael McDonald always sings with his eyes closed.

  • Gosh! This brings back the wonderful days, of my middles school days. Michale McDonald has a wonderful soulful voice, and through him many other came to love this terrific band. I wish they would have a reunion tour so sad many have past away. May they rest in peace.

  • Is that a guitar cabinet mic he's singing through? Nice...

  • This song is HELLA.

  • There's nothing like a song that brings back memories, makes you smile or cry,

    lets you think about an old love, or a night you danced till you're feet hurt.

    This song is All of the above. Thanks Guys!

  • Silver fox in his prime!

  • the one with the heavy mustache is definetly the doobie founder (name wise) lol

  • Michael McDonald has such a soulful sound.  This brings me back to my childhood

  • Michael McDonald is so smooth. He just glides in to those high notes with the easy of a slant 6. Songs written back in those days had some depth. Got you to wondering what was going thru their minds when those lyrics popped out. Thanks Michael. You are still one of a kind.

  • Miss thm Days when music had you driftin.. going to the best places in your mind!
