I Will Not Take My Love Away
I just love this song. I just found it recently. Tonight actually. I was planning on using A Change Of Pace song but reconsidered when I saw these lyrics. Like I stated before, I love lyrics. Its gotten be into trouble too but I will save that story for another day. Maybe a follow up post.
This song is unique because these lyrics are the definition of love. The radio is flooded with songs about how attracted a guy is to a girl or vice versa. And most songs on the radio use attraction and chemistry interchangeably with the word "love". I am sure some of you have heard me talk about what love really means. I will keep it short. My defintion of "true love" is not funny butterflies in the stomach. It is doing what is best for the other person. Even if that means you might be hurt or embarassed. If you love them you will do what is best. In this song, the singer promises to be there for them, to provide for them, to love them no matter what. When life isn't sunny, when the world turns away, When everything is crashing down, I will not stop loving you. Such a beautiful message. And a beautiful song to go with it. These precious words are laid atop a soft bed of an acoustic guitar and Wertz's unique voice. And as you know, I am christian. In this song I see a parallel love song sung by my savior. It may not have been the intetntion of the songwriter and thats fine. But I hear Jesus when I hear this song. So Lemme know what you think! Love it? Hate It? And why?
