Part of my 1985 soundtrack...Yes, it's schmaltzy..but face it..if you lived in that era, you can relate.

This song was a favorite of a Russian lady-friend of mine a decade or so ago. I'd never heard it before hearing it as her ringtone By the time I'd been in Yaroslavl with her for a week, I couldn't get the tune out of my head.
