The Story

My wife & I used to listen to this song (track 4 on one of my Love CD Mixtapes obviously) on drives up to the Colorado Mountains & all around the Denver when we were seventeen.. We'd pretty much get in the car & drive.. Sometimes to a park to lay on our backs under the stars, sometimes to a parking lot to make-out (BTW - a cop tapping on your window with his flashlight mid make-out sesh to tell you to move along is mortifying in case you were wondering). This track was always the one that stood out above all the others on the 4 mixtapes I made for her. It's like it had the words that our 17 year old selves were lacking to try to somehow say that we were made for each other. Fast forward 6 years and, of course, it's the song for our first dance at our wedding! And here we are married 10 years today... So there's gotta be some magic in it! PLUS, I just listened to "Becoming" by Michelle Obama on audiobooks & turns out -- it was THEIR first dance song at THEIR wedding too! So if it works for Mr. & Mrs. President, it works for me.
