This was written by myself and Mr. Rabbit Locklear way back on February 22, 1991. Check it out.

Sitting by a window
I wonder how he stole your heart
I never knew lonely
Until I lost you
If you’re within the sound of my voice
You’ll know why I’m blue
You’ll know that I love you
And my love is true

(Chorus)
Love is like a piece of gold
Hard to find and hard to hold
But when you find it
You better hold on tight
And don’t let it
Drift out of sight

Then you’ll know what I mean
What I’ve been talking about
You’ll know what true love is like
Someone on whom you can count

Girl, you say that it’s over
But my love won’t end
You’re all I ever wanted
If not a lover
Then a friend

I guess I’m in love
I need you so please don’t go
Cause just how much I love you
I guess you’ll never know

(Chorus)
Love is like a piece of gold
Hard to find and hard to hold
But when you find it
You better hold on tight
And don’t let it
Drift out of sight

I guess now
You’re a part of me
Me and the man above
I only know I want you
Because I’m a man in love

And there you go. I don’t remember the exact details of us writing this, but I’m sure plenty of cold beers were involved. A great memory and flashback about some incredible times with a great friend. Those were the days. Thanks for sharing this moment with me.
