Yes, I gotta say 'Long Time Running.' Does it portray an unambiguous 'moon beams and puppy dogs' romance? Not at all. But it's a wonderful evocation of a young man's determination not to be tied down, laced with a deeper sense of what love is worth...'it's well worth the wait.'
I love the way the song doesn't resolve itself. You never know if the couple works out; it could break either way. But the narrative voice is fully realized. And the simple guitar is the perfect complement. :thumb:
