Who would you tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree for?

Update:

Oh, don't take this one too seriously. Just to lighten things up. This is an old song by Tony Orlando and the Dawn in which the singer returns to his beloved after a long time. He is hoping to find a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree as a sign that she still loves him, and to his delight, he finds a hundred yellow ribbons...

    I LOVE THIS SONG!!! I listened to it and it made me cry when he gets to the part about the bus cheering, and the 100 ribbons. So good! I'd tie a thousand ribbons for a certain person I know... A kinda special one to me. =) You just made me feel so in love right now!
