This song was written in memory of his Father. Knowing that, it puts a whole different spin on the song.

Wrote it for his Dad who had recently passed.

He wrote this after coming home from his father's funeral.  Everyone thought it was just another love song, which it works perfectly well as, but it took on a whole separate meaning when the truth was revealed.  I didn't know the true meaning until the 20-Teens.  Released in 1972, so I went decades before hearing the real story.

As others have said, it's about his dad.

That's a beautiful song for his father. It's an unconditional love and they're the ones that teach us what that means.

IF - Bread was another epic hit filled with meaning.

Another hit was “IF” which I think was played at every wedding in the 70s

I thought this was a love song for a woman as well until I read somewhere I believe it’s for his dad. Beautiful.

As you may be starting to notice? The 70s had the best songs, songwriters, singers and musicians. I was very blessed. ❤❤
