An older man is in love with a young girl who makes him feel young again. An older woman is lonely and hopes they can get together again. He knows she is mature and right for him, but he wants to be young and foolish. That is the gist of the song, as it fits into the musical, A little night music. It is a sad story, but one that happens over and over again. But the future is unknown. if an older husband has a stroke, perhaps his wife would spend years caring for him. That ruins the romance of marriage, but it can happen. That is why the marriage vows always say in sickness and in health...

Touching. For the 1000th time. Still.
Marvelous. Sian Phillips and Eric Flynn are perfect in these roles and opposite each other.
Wow! Wonderful!😊
Love this. Wonderful. Great to see “uncle paddy” performing. What an amazing talent he had and passed on xxx
I love how the melody intro in the response is played on flute, rather than the clarinet of the First time --- lovely contrast in texture
😎😎😎
Wonderful. I want this version of the reprise played at my funeral.
Absolutely beautiful
Simply beautiful. ❤
Wonderful
Love to see the pros working
Nice to see/hear them alternating, kudos to the orchestra(tion). Some vocalizing from dame SP. Bravi.
It is so wonderfuld I wonder if this arrangement can be licensed for an actual production...

I don't think anyone has bettered Glynis Johns version of this song. Just my opinion so keep calm.
I saw the show in NY right after it opened, and Loved Glamis
My personal favorite version is Judi Dench in the Hey Mr Producer concert
Judi Dench does a good interpretation. She is not a great singer, but gives a moving performance.
Jerome Flynns dad
