Alan Gordon, songwriter who was one of two who wrote The Turtles 1967 hit, “Happy Together”.
I can’t see me lovin’ nobody but you
For all my life
When you’re with me, baby the skies’ll be blue
For all my lifeMe and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together

“It’s been such a gift from God. It’s hard to put into words what that song means to me,” he told the Washington Post in 2004. “I know I wrote it, but it’s taken on… it’s hard to explain. You’re driving down the highway and you hear your song coming out of someone’s car. The angels heard me praying the day I wrote ‘Happy Together.’ “
