I've had snippets of this song running through my head but couldn't remember the name or enough of the lyrics running together to do a search. All I could remember is I thought that Paula Cole sang it. Now at 2:15 a. m. I remember the name of the song. I remember Ms. Cole being known back in the day for really only 2 songs, "I Don't Want to Wait" (the Dawson's Creek song) and this song. Where I like I don't want to wait, radio stations over played it and I preferred this song. I haven't thought of this song in about 25 years, but I'm glad I did. I still like and may have to introduce my 17 y. o. to it. All because I was watching a SMOSH video and they referenced I Don't Want to Wait and that jogged my memory. Sometimes I miss those days when I was young and stupid. If I could go back in time and do it all over, but keep my knowledge & experience 46 years have given me, I would. I find myself feeling nostalgic for those days recently. I'm a proud Gen Xer and wouldn't want to claim any other generation.

This song is spitting truths!

I too had a marriage that never delivered the fantasy or the dream of continued bliss. Marriage and or permanent relationships are hard work and once disappointed enters the picture it usually goes south. I just finally looked at the lyrics today. What a powerful statement.

This fire was a hell of an album. Right behind Donna lewis-now in a minute as the most underrated female album of the 90s.

While watching a rerun episode of Yellowstone in 2023 this song played in the back of my mind. Actually felt like this in 1997 when I was working full time, taking care of baby, doing laundry and cleaning while waiting for my "cowboy" to come home from the bar. Luckily things changed for the better and we're still going strong 30 years later. I actually got my happy ending.

Another Gem from the 90s!

This came out when I had my first baby, got married and realised his addiction soon after, when I was trapped. I used to hold the newborn and sing this when it came on the radio. It was prophetic.

The 9/11 time hole. We lost an entire decade.

The production on this track has always seemed unique. Keep in mind that this was recorded to 24-track analog tape through a massive vintage Neve console at the iconic and now closed "The Magic Shop" studios in NYC. The spoken verse mixed with that amazing melody subtly singing along under it in the mix was pure genius. It takes a very creative mind to visualize something like that in the world of analog sound, and it went completely against the grain of everything else on pop radio during that period. I say this all the time, I feel extremely damn lucky to have been a young teenager during this period of music, 14yo to be exact, at the time this album was released.
