A friend of mine "fixed me up" with her sister who was visiting from Oregon. When I met her, I thought 'wow'. After I got to know her, I said 'double-wow'. Tibby Dunbar was the name of restaurant that she worked at up in Portland.

Tibby Dunbar (1978)

Where were you back in ’72
When life was simple and the world was new
And if I knew you then, life it could have been 
so easy

Just watching sunsets from California beaches
Pull down a star now, girl, it’s all within your reaches
I know you’ve got some others, but we might just have been lovers, 
so easy

Life so confusing, sometimes I think I’m losing all my sweet dreams
Been making funny faces at the people and the places I’ve been seeing
Then you came along for just a few days and a song
And you showed me how my feelings were wrong
It’s so easy, so darned easy, to fall in love

Sweet Tibby Dunbar, you’re so far away
Jamie and Joel, what did Momma say
Did she come unglued, unraveled, when she spoke about her travels 
to the city.

I know it must have been hard for you living there without her
She’s something special, something very nice about her
I know you must have missed her, ‘cause I tell you brother, sister 
it’s easy
to miss your momma
