She says, I smell like safety and home
I named both of her eyes, 'forever' and 'please don't go'
I have featured her poetry here before, and I am sure that most of you have heard her incredible voice emanating from the speakers on your radio... but Mary Lambert, the co-author of "Same Love," which went platinum just this past month, by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, is making some melodious waves herself in a release based on the same song.
Whether you're gay, straight, or somewhere in between, "She Keeps Me Warm" puts words to love, with the graceful power of Mary's voice behind them. It is intimate and deeply personal, resonating with the universal experience of being truly in love -- comfortable, life-giving, and exhilarating. If you haven't had a chance to listen, do it. Listen, share, download. And, if you have a moment, read her thoughts behind the release of this oh-so-personal single.
I cried the first time I heard this song on the radio. It rang true. I understand it better now that Ive read her thoughts on the song. So beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
