I was listening to a new CD yesterday (Adele - 19, it's fabulous, check it out), and one song really struck me as poignant. I later found out that the song was written by Bob Dylan & has been covered by other artists, and has been featured in a movie. At any rate, the words to me seem to be (for the most part) applicable not only to 'romantic' relationships, but to friendships and family relationships. The words resonate with me as far as the security that's found in unconditional love, which is something I've been thinking about lately. This one's for you.
"Make You Feel My Love"
When the rain
Is blowing in your face
And the whole world
Is on your case
I could offer you
A warm embrace
To make you feel my love
When the evening shadows
And the stars appear
And there is no one there
To dry your tears
I could hold you
For a million years
To make you feel my love
I know you
Haven't made
Your mind up yet
But I would never
Do you wrong
I've known it
From the moment
That we met
No doubt in my mind
Where you belong
I'd go hungry
I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling
Down the avenue
No, there's nothing
That I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love
The storms are raging
On the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
Though winds of change
Are throwing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing
Like me yet
I could make you happy
Make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends
Of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love
