a meaningful song

I have always really loved this song, but I find it especially meaningful in trying to move forward since Catelyn's death.

At first, I think the thought of not having Catelyn by my side made the words sting.  I felt as though I would never have any moments with her again...now, I think the words bring hope and a reminder that Catelyn is with me whether I see her or not.

The wind still whispers her name, birds sing her song, leaves drop, sway and flutter, and bells/chimes ring at seemingly random times.  These are signs that she is near & letting me know she is okay, or misses me, or says hi, and so on.


For Baby (for Bobby)
by John Denver
I’ll walk in the rain by your side
I’ll cling to the warmth of your hand
I’ll do anything to keep you satisfied
I’ll love you more than anybody can

And the wind will whisper your name to me
Little birds will sing along in time
Leaves will bow down when you walk by
And morning bells will chime

I’ll be there when you’re feelin’ down
To kiss away the fears if you cry
I’ll share with you all the happiness I’ve found
A reflection of the love in your eyes

And I’ll sing you the songs of the rainbow
A whisper of the joy that is mine
And leaves will bow down when you walk by
And morning bells will chime

I’ll walk in the rain by your side
I’ll cling to the warmth of your tiny hand
I’ll do anything to help you understand
And I’ll love you more than anybody can

And the wind will whisper your name to me
Little birds will sing along in time
Leaves will bow down when you walk by
And morning bells will chime
