The beauty of his guitar lines evokes the heartbreak, while
their repetition underscores the instistency of the lyrics
(without ever sounding corny).
"In the night your love's a beacon
That's the light I've been seeking
So Darling, don't forsake it
Take this heart and smash or break it
I'm pleading, baby take away the pain
I'm pleading, baby take away the pain"
As a power-pop song it's a 10---as good if not
better than the best Eric Carmen or Badfinger
ever put out. .
