The lyrics are very touching, referring to the lost love she had, but not wanting to lose it forever, embracing change, not living in the past, "Weep not for the memories". The voice from the songs tells her lover to remember her and do not let life pass by, because she was so in love with him, so eager to become the one, and does not want to lose everything they experienced together. The song is deep, talking about the fear, the edge, and the memories and of course, hope of love.
Not a lot of covers, but we can mention Kenny Rogers on his 1999 album, Seamus Egan band in their 2000 album and also, very important aspect, the song opened one of the greatest series of all times that we all know, "Melrose Place" season finale, in 1999.
