“Time in a Bottle” is more than just a song to me — it’s part of my story. My father wrote it for me when he learned my mother was pregnant. It also marked a turning point in his career, as it is the song that ultimately came to define him as the artist you all know and love today.

I first heard my father sing ‘He’s Got a Way With Women’ on a home tape when I was about 12 years old. He covered it in the mid 60’s and it was the first song on my first album 30 years ago and the first song I performed live on The Tonight Show in 1993. Here’s a little piece.
