Track 22 of 39 in the ongoing series presenting tunes from an actual mixed tape from the early nineties college years ... goes a bit introspective ... a bit wistful ... a bit "crunchy" if you will ... more than a bit poetic ... basically, a bit Indigo Girl-ie.
Well -- a whole lot Indigo Girl-ie, as this spot on the cassette (yep, we're old!) is reserved for the beautiful lyrics of "Love's Recovery".
And if you follow the path of the song through the sad parts about youths too busy making plans to realize that life was being missed around them and about how friends simply fade away up to the powerful trinity climax (the words shown in the accompanying image), the denouement is actually a bit ... well ... *hopeful* toward the future (the future that has already become the past, seeing as how all of these feelings were from a time over twenty years ago).
THOUGH IT'S STORMING OUT, I FEEL SAFE IN THE ARMS ... OF LOVE'S DISCOVERY:
