I think this is a Gen X theme song. It gets covered (by another Gen Xer) at every major life transition. As they have aged, the tempo has slowed and the song has deepened, but the notes still apply. In 1982, they were kids. In 2010 they are the parents. Like a generational version of Manheim Steamroller's "Mere Image."

Things change when you're the parent. But there's an echo of your youth in their future. The slow pace has different meaning to 40yr old parents than to 18yr olds.

Oh... Wow. I did not expect this to sound good. I am totally amazed. Fantastic job!

I have always been conserving water due to the facts that I am on a well and it is the right thing to do. The gas-fracking industry uses millions of gallons of clean water to drill & fracture their gas wells, after which it is a hazardous material. Mad f'n world indeed! Think about that the next time they tell you to conserve water on hot summer days.

I don't get it, why so many dislikes? I really enjoyed listening to this..

Not a big Sara Hickman fan, but I think this is the best version of this song. She really gets the point across
