A Love Like This ~ Dan Fogelberg [ CC ]

"A tribute to one of my songwriting heros, Paul McCartney, written January 1991. This same week (to be fair) I wrote a tribute to John Lennon ("Democracy"). I very much doubt I would ever have been a songwriter if it weren't for the Beatles." (Dan Fogelberg)

Fan tribute to greatest singer/songwriter Dan Fogelberg. "A Love Like This" from the "River Of Souls" album (released 1993), also in "The Very Best of Dan Fogelberg" album (released 2001). Special thanks to Dan for this romantic love song and to many artists for their professional photographs and artworks. Thank you all Danfans for your falling in love with Dan's music, a love like this is so hard to find.....Enjoy!

A Love Like This ~ Dan Fogelberg (Lyrics)

And now the lonely days are done
And with each rising of the sun, love begins anew
And if you ever ask me why I know that my love will never die
I'll say these words to you
Of all the souls I've ever known
Mine sings to yours and yours alone
And yours sings just to me
In all this world I'll never find
A heart that could beat as close to mine
And this time I can see
(Chorus)
A love like this is so hard to find
And so many never do
And loves like this, when they even exist
Are precious and few
You know they're precious and few
(Repeat Chorus)
Down the miles, through the years
Yours is the star by which I steer
The brightest star I've known
And when I feel all hope is gone
Yours is the love that leads me on
The light that guides me home
The light that guides me home
Your light will guide me home

"Of all the souls I've ever known, mine sings to yours and yours alone, and yours sings just to me". One of my favorite lines - I hope to feel that way about someone someday :) Thank you - this is beautiful... he remains unmatched as an artist/composer/musician...

...with all its frailties, subtleties and rare attributes, music, as expressed in this gathering of supernal tones and phrases may sustain as a journey to forever and home again...

I guess by the time MTV came along, the day of the great singer/songwriter was nearing it's end, and new wave was all the rage! I'm glad Dan was able to get his masterpiece, The Innocent Age, and the great Windows and Walls out, before MTV ended the popularity of the genre all together! I mean the same thing starting happening to Jackson Browne, James Taylor, John Denver, etc, etc! Oh well! :+( Peace to all, BobbyK

[bobby7771117]

Man, the critics at All Music, and most places, are nuts! This album had fine material, that the blinded critics just couldn't see or understand! Let me see a critic play electric lead guitar like this, and write lyrics like this! And, I can get just a faint reminder of how much Dan loved the Beatles! Peace and Love, BobbyK

[wolfnu2]

This maybe Dan's best and it is certainly desplayed perfectly !
