And here I've been listening to the Rolling Stones' Let It Bleed CD for the past few days...
Gimme Shelter (M. Jagger/K. Richards)
Oh, a storm is threat'ning
My very life today
If I don't get some shelter
Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away...
War, children, it's just a shot away
It's just a shot away...
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
It's just a shot away
I tell you love, sister, it's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
It's just a kiss away
Kiss away, kiss away...
Fire and water, ma cher. Interesting how it all plays out, no?
RE: the poll -- I'm fond of a particular song by Carol Sloane/Lena Horne for that one:
An older man is like an elegant wine
I'll romance him, enchant him
Love him, decant him...
It's all a matter of perspective. And it depends on the circumstances, certainly.
