If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day
'Til eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

The singer-songwriter Jim Croce composed the song while his wife was pregnant and was later released as part of his breaktrought album "You Don't Mess Around with Jim" in 1972, whose title track became a top 10 hit. In 1973, he reached a #1 single with "Bad Bad Leroy Brown", part of his next album. On September 20 of that year, he died in a plane crash. His son had his 2th birthday two days before the accident. After the incident, the song started to be played on radios. A single was released on November. One month later, it reached the #1 position on american charts. The song's album also reached the #1 position.
