  • It baffles me how a silly little boy can make a record and several million people like it, yet this, by the best ever singer/songwriter/musician/actor doesn't get so many likes. The whole world is going mad.

    A prince, a poet, a philosopher and a musician for the ages...
  • @syourke3
    The only Rhodes Scholar who ever really gave the world something of great value.
  • I was 13 when he sang this. My God, the 70's had such great music.

    50 years later, as an old man, he sings this with Roseanne Cash. It's beautiful, both now and 50 years ago.
  • Met Kris twice. He loved his fans and hung out with us in the parking lot after the show. I'll never forget that evening in Palm Springs.
  • You can tell from this song and the way he sings it he experienced some severe heartbreak
  • I not only love the songs that Kris wrote but I love to hear him sing them. He doesn't have a perfect or polished voice but that's part of the realism and the charm. I feel it when he sings it, knowing that he's been there and felt every word. One of the best songwriters of this or any time.
  • he was a officer in our Air Force, served in Vietnam Nam, was a Rhode Scholar and one hell of a song writer, he said many times he isn't a good singer, hearing him sing 3 songs he wrote proves otherwise, this, Sunday morning, and why me lord.... I miss the Highway Men
  • Any body who has truly been in love will understand how meaningfull these words are xx
  • Dog gone I had forgotten about this song. I remember daddy playing it while we were working the farm in the trucks. Glad I found it because of the memories. And, mama and daddy were married in 1958 and still together. Blessed, thank you Jesus!
  • @stempo1
    It bugs me when people say he isn't a great singer, He is the best singer to sing his songs, this is how this song is supposed to sound.
  • Kris is a very intelligent man, and a great songwriter, musician, and singer. He flew helicopters in the Army, tought literature at West point, and could have been a professor at Oxford where he studied literature, but thank God he chose to write and sing music. He wrote so many songs for so many artists in the music business. I'm so glad I enjoyed his music in my lifetime. Enjoy your retirement Kris.

    I met him once and he was the kindest man I met. He’s a great songwriter and a Rhodes Scholar
  • About three weeks ago I sent the link to this song to my wife, writing: "Beautiful song. It made me think of you."  She wrote back:  "Now you did it -- you made me cry.  I love you Kev with all my heart."  She passed away last week after a sudden heart attack.  We played the song at her service yesterday.  I gather Kris is going through some difficult health issues.  I wish I could tell him how much this song means to me now and how much it will mean to me for the rest of my life..
  • One of my biggest regrets in life is not getting to see him perform live. His songs speak to me on a level I can’t explain. 💕💕
  • One of the most beautiful songs ever written. Thanks Kris✌️
