And so the countdown comes to an end.
Oops ... wait a minute ... that's *next* week.
*This* week is track *38* of 39 (of the collection of tunes that appear on that two cassette [yes, I said cassette] mixed tape from my college era).
And the penultimate song was the ultimate choice back in the day (before Facebook co-opted the title word for its own nefarious purposes) for recognizing that those to whom you are closest in a season aren't necessarily going to be around forever ... except for the memories you hold in your heart ... forever ... or until they're knocked loose by something like ... well ... like a 39 week countdown of songs that meant something to you during those heady and hearty soul-finding personality-tuning times.
Of course, the youtube link below isn't exactly the same as the one that appeared back then, but who could pass up a "live" duet between Michael W Smith and the one and only Amy Grant. Sappy .. sure. But I'll be damned if I might not have teared up upon hearing the song anew again tonight.
