Song on my mind... "To Make You Feel My Love" by Billy Joel

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

There are days when I wallow in the waters of self-pity that have flooded the basement of my mind. On such days, I'm thankful for songs that help drain the negative feelings, that act as a musical sump pump so I can deal with the source of the emotions and try to repair the damage. Music only provides a temporary relief, but it's a welcome relief.
