An ambiguous song this one. A tale of a woman going about her mundane life and ageing, dreaming of the alternative lives she could have lived. Told by her husband who has no real personal presence in the song and sounds as much of a jailer as a lover. You can't help wondering whether an affair is coming up. Still, it's a pretty tune. Written by Chris Gantry and reached # 32 on the US Singles Billboard chart in 1968.
