This is one of my favorite songs too. They played it at my grade 12 graduation and of course it made me cry. It's about good times, and bad times, the past, the future, and life and death. But I think it's clear the overall message of the song is to live life to the fullest while you can. All the best. Dale

Your posts are wonderful, have been reading your blog since a little before you went to Italy. I am so glad 'I found you'. A Brazilian hug to you.
