So as I was listening to my Jill Scott station on Pandora, I heard this song.... I've become a fan of Adele recently, and so as I listened to this, I felt my heart swell just a bit. I'm clearly a romantic, but more than that, I'm a fan of love in all its beautiful, hardcore, life-changing forms, especially when it comes to showing people love. Alas, this song is perfect for that.
"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." Everyone of us runs into issues and troubles in life. It is good to know that someone out there cares and is willing to be there for us in those times, and the singer is extending that comfort to someone in order that they may feel her love. For her, love is not just words spoken, but it is the manifestation of care that makes love real.
"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." It appears that the singer is trying to convince the one that she loves that they belong together. While the person may be undecided, she has felt something deep inside since they first met that tells her that they are destined. Because of this, she desires to never bring pain and only to show love. She is willing to give up things and sacrifice, to even fight to show the love that is within her. Once again, love is not just the words spoken but the things that we do to show it.
"The storms are raging on the rolling sea and on the highway of regret. Though winds of change are blowing 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, to make you feel my love." Life is full of crazy, unpredictable surprises and circumstances. Yet with all that you've encountered and experienced, the singer says that she has a love that rivals anything that her friend has ever seen. She assures her love that she can bring happiness and even help bring dreams to life, because there is nothing that she wouldn't do to make her love visible. Above all, she wants the person that she loves to be able to truly feel the love that is within her. For her, it's about faithfulness, support, care, and action - that is what allows people to feel love beyond all the romantic stuff or words anyone can say.
