Danny's Song
Loggins & Messina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

People smile and tell me I'm the lucky one
And we've just begun
Think I'm gonna have a son
He will be like she and me, as free as a dove
Conceived in love
Sun is gonna shine above

And even though we ain't got money
I'm so in love with you honey
And everything will bring a chain of love
And in the mornin' when I rise
Bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything is gonna be alright

Seems as though a month ago I was Beta Chi
Never got high
Oh, was a sorry guy
And now I smile and face the girl that shares my name, yeah
Now I'm through with the game
This boy'll never be the same

And even though we ain't got money
I'm so in love with you honey
And everything will bring a chain of love
And in the mornin' when I rise
Bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything is gonna be all right

Pisces Virgo rising is a very good sign
Strong and kind
And the little boy is mine
Now I see a family where there once was none
Now we've just begun
Yeah we're gonna fly to the sun

And even though we ain't got money
I'm so in love with you honey
And everything will bring a chain of love
And in the mornin' when I rise
You bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything is gonna be all right

Love the girl who holds the world in a paper cup
Drink it up
Love her and she'll bring you luck
And if you find she helps your mind
Buddy, take her home
Yeah, don't you live alone
Try to earn what lovers own

And even though we ain't got money
I'm so in love with you honey
And everything will bring a chain of love
And in the mornin' when I rise




You bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything is gonna be alright

Mom passed away this afternoon. This was her and dad’s wedding song. They were married for 42 wonderful years and made the most of every moment. This song reminds me to keep things simple and they will work themselves out. It’s only been 5 hours since you left, mom, but you will be in my heart forever.

@Lance Croft, To think of this song in what must be one of the most painful, poignant moments of life is a real tribute to the power of this song and these artists. I hope you're doing well--and are feeling that you have an eye looking out for you from the heavens. Take care.
