Make You Feel My Love

The first self portrait taken of us...which now become our tradition, wherever we go


It is Saturday and was watching Bones reruns. The final episode for Season 6 was playing and at the end of the show they had this song playing in the background...To Make You Feel My Love by Adele. I could here it in the background and immediately drawn to it. Google it and found out it is a song by Bob Dylan written years ago. I was not surprised that such deep lyrics and beautiful tune came from a passionate song writer. What he wrote brought out a feeling that was familiar to me years ago when I dated Ted.

As any couple we had our ups and downs, and yes it was roller coaster ride. The kind that you could only get if you put 2 passionate people together. I guess at one point, Ted was at a cross road  and he just disappeared. No fights, no words, no explanation. I was left confused and almost gave up on the relationship. I think I did at the end, just before he came back. And when he did came back, he was meant to stay. Yes we made up and got married 6 months after that.

The lyrics of this song brought out all the feelings I had for him before that final surrender. But I guess when I surrendered, it was not me giving up but it simply meant that I did all I could to have him back and simply wait if he would fight for me too.

The Lyrics:

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 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
