My husband died 11 months ago. I still can't hold the tears back. He was my true love. Your still one of our favorites.

Late last night I got a notification from NYA that this version of this song was released, my close friend was undergoing emergency surgery to replace the mitral valve in his heart for the third time in 10 days. The initial surgery was completely botched by the hospital and the surgical team and the past 10 days have been a nightmare for his loving family and friends. My friend today begins a new journey. I believe he sent me this song last night. The lyrics are so poignant right now. Thanks bro for being you and thanks for sending Dream On by Aerosmith from our youth after this one finished. I cracked a can of beer and lifted it to you when I found out you were taking your first steps today on that path that never ends. Travel light and satisfied bro.

my father introduced me to Niel Young.... So every time I hear a song of his it makes me think of the many times me and my pops listened to YouTube and his music.... We even played a Niel Young song at his funeral.... Thinking of you Dad.

For someone to be famous for being a great singer/songwriter/ musician/person when they are young(excuse the pun)and still be all them things when you are 77 and still making great music at that age speaks volumes of him, Neil Young long may you run, ❤

Hold Back the Tears

Hello, my old friend
It's good to see you smiling
You've been around so long, you must be strong
And single life really has its fine points
Like friends to help you out when things go wrong

Hold back the tears
That you've been cryin'
Push off the fears
When they come around

Hold back the tears
And keep on trying
Just around the next corner
May be waiting your true love

Two lying fools
And then four cryin' eyes
Counting on one another to survive
Crazy love must surely have this pain
If getting up means going down again

Hold back the tears
That you've been cryin'
Push off the fears
When they come around

Hold back the tears
And keep on trying
Just around the next corner
May be waiting your true love
