I was listening to the soft rock dedication radio station last night and there was an interesting story. Here's the summary, followed by the dedication.
Liz, her brother, and her brother's friend, Clint, all grew up near each other and Clint spent a lot of time at Liz and her brother's house. They all were heavily into playing soccer. Clint, like Liz' brother, was two years older than her. So, the usual poking fun at the "younger sister" took place.
A few years later, Clint and Liz ended up going to the same college and, as quite a surprise (as Liz told it), they began dating, then fell in love. They've been together about two years. Clint just graduated, while Liz completed her sophomore year. And, they're still together and still in love.
Clint is leaving this week, Tuesday in fact, to play professional soccer in England and Liz knows she is going to miss him. She said she'll wait for him and honor their love.
So, she called into the radio station and requested a song for him last night ...
"A Thousand Miles" by Vanessa Carlton
I thought it was very sweet.
