This song, co-written by Richard Carpenter, went to #1 for 2 weeks in 1973. And, it wasn't even supposed to be a single - it was an album cut that ended up being a COUNTRY hit for Lynn Anderson when she covered it herself.
Lyrically, it's little more than a really simple love song - but isn't that what love is all about? Musically, although there's a full orchestra as part of the backing band, the song is dominated by the Wurlizer electric piano. Karen Carpenter's earnest, wholesome delivery really sells the song.
