1986 was a great for country music songs like this one made it great! 2023 doesn't offer very many good songs like this one wonder was S-K-O are up to these days?

I love this song. I'm a 19 year old single mother to a gorgeous little girl. I've spent many nights up alone with her, then got her to sleep and still stayed up cleaning. You do what you have to do, and you do it out of PURE LOVE!!!! I might be a young single mom but with what God has given me to work with, I think I do pretty damn good!! I go to school and work and still care for my daughter while her father does God knows what every night, but I'd rather it was this way tbh. I love you Buggy

I remember this song from my childhood. S-K-O (and later S-K-B) didn't last long, but they had a number of great songs. Quality over quantity for sure.

This song was a great 80s song !!!!!

Paul Overstreet still lives on the farm he bought in the mid 80s and watches a lot of baseball.

Love this song; brings back memories from my teenage years, when they used to play real country music on the radio.

What happened to this trio of outstanding musical talent, I just found them very good to harmonize like those groups of the early 60's very rare.

Oh the memories this song brings to me. In 1986, I was a 22 yrs old, unmarried, pregnant and scared to death young woman. This song really hit home for me. I cried almost every time I heard it - but I loved it anyway. My son will be 24 this year. I've been looking for this song for years & I'm so glad to have found it here at least. Maybe someday I'll be able to purchase a download of it.

Same here but I was 19 and just married

I was 18, with a little boy, all alone when this song came out. 36 years later, I'm sitting here crying, remembering this song. It got me through a lot during that time, praying for the happy ending she got. I didn't get my happy ending until 2 years ago.

@lcrow4978 God Bless you. Thank you for your strength and your perseverance. I heard this the first time in about 1988, when my Alarm, set to WBAP820 AM, went off at 6 AM. I lay in bed waking up slowly, and listened. It was a great song then, and is now.

Nerd alert: I first recall hearing this song on August 2, 1986. I was 9 before turning 10.

Why stop there? Classic 80s production: heavy kick on 1 and 3, chorused apeggiated electric guitars, fat snare, and Yamaha DX7

one of the best songs ever written.

One of the best songs EVER.

My husband tossed all my old vinyl records without even asking if there was anything there I wanted (we hadn't used the turntable in years.) Yes, this song was on one of those albums. Thank you for this.

KSMusicGeeks: Thank you so much for posting this song (and the other three) from the S-K-O album. I had looked for this song everywhere since I hard it on the radio back in late 1986/early 1987...I LOVE Paul Overstreet's songwriting and singing! It has always been a special song for me, and I'm so glad to have found it here (it still gives me goosebumps when I hear it)!

Love this song

Ok major flashback...I LOVE this song! In fact I still have the LP!

I was 11 when this song came out and I still remember it :D Thanks so much for putting this on here. I really wish I could get a download of it.

GREAT SONG!!!

This song reminded me of one of my best friends when it was out. We were both in high school and she got pregnant. It was not a good situation but she went on to successfully raise the child against such odds. Great song ! Thanks for sharing. Wish it was on iTunes but it’s not.

great song!!!!

Love this song !

The first time I heard this was in about 1988 on WBAP in Dallas Texas. I looked for it for a long time, but SKO had broken up and Paul Overstreet was not yet writing for himself. I finally found a copy of this album, and sill have it, all these years later. I hate the "fadeout" at the end... it's a sign of a weakly written song... but the song is powerful and I love it. Thank you so much for posting.

I love it i come here about everyday to hear this great song

very hard song to find. you have to buy the tape if you can find it and have it tranferd to a cd thats what we did. great song

I had this on cassette - been looking for it in a playable format for years.

Thanks for posting. I thought I'd never get to hear these songs again.

the beginning of the rest of my life with my love.

Love this song. Thanks for posting.

Great Tune!!!

I have been looking sooo long to hear this!!!!! It really means a lot to us!!! So thankful to find & lear this special song again!!!!!

LOVE the fade-out of this song - You can try but you just can't stop it You can try but you're never gonna stop it!

Always 👍 good to look back at what is 👍 💘 long past us.it only lasts for a short while.😅

Its been a long time since I heard this one. I forgot all about it.

I really like this song

I wish they were on spotify!

Totally agree! Both this song and "Baby's Got A New Baby" need to be on Spotify, especially. Also "Givers And Takers" when they became S-K-B.

Really good song

I love this song very fond of paulover street

Great song! For all of us who have lost loved ones. Life goes that fast and we will see them again that soon! Hello type in "Ron Howard Palace" listen to Opie sing "Lady"! Also type "Ron Howard cover" listen to "The Dance"! 1

The fade out was invented for radio...most disc jockeys wouldn't play a song over 3:00 mins and it gave them a chance to talk between songs with no dead air...sometimes it was done in the recording process to drive home the melodic hook of the title like it does here.

have this on vinyl in my record collection

@PTCello I found it!! :-) The harmony is beautiful. It's familiar to me, and thanks for reminding me of another lovely song by SKO/Paul Overstreet.

it's pretty...Bob Welch with Sendimental Lady...John Denver!...Beautiful!

great song

zeke...Here's your answer, from Wikipedia: Thom Schuyler, Fred Knobloch and Paul Overstreet were well-known songwriters who formed a group in 1986. Overstreet left in 1987 for a solo career, and was replaced by Craig Bickhardt. They changed their name to Schuyler, Knobloch & Bickhardt, and disbanded when their record label, MTM Records, shut down in 1989. Thom Schuyler became the vice president of RCA Nashville, retiring in 1994. Knobloch and Bickhardt continued their songwriting careers.

I like this so much that I'll probably buy the "New Country; Volume One" CD for $60 (new price).

OMG memories

Awesome song.

Sad song of a teenage single parent. Its a shame that this goes on a lot in these times.

Thanks KSMUSIC for sharing. Absolutely Great

Beautiful song one of my all time favorites don't make country music like this anymore

Another song that really takes me back! I remember always liking it throughout my early childhood. It was still getting recurrent airplay around early 1993, as I have it on a tape I recorded then. I really miss beautiful songs that told great stories like this. I've always liked those falsetto background vocals near the end, too!
