Essential Love Songs: Save Me a Place

“Save Me a Place” by Fleetwood Mac

Many days, when I leave the house on the commute, I feel like I’m in a rock band and I’m leaving on tour for months. I long for the return. To walk back through the door. To have my place saved for me.

Lindsey Buckingham’s Save Me a Place gets it just right. It’s that moment on Tusk when all the emotion and desperation just bleeds out completely. Well, there’s Christine’s Never Make You Cry. Save Me a Place is what’s left over when you’ve exhausted all your energy longing for home. It’s from the gut and completely naked true.

Anyone who doesn’t feel this way from time to time when they’re away from the one they love can’t really say they’re in love.

Speaking of Lindsey Buckingham and Fleetwood Mac…

And speaking of the song…

And speaking of not turning me away…
