Thank you very much for your choice of songs, GfS.
I know the Leonard Cohen very well, but the other two not at all.
Enjoyed all very much.

...but then some day when your poor heart is on the mend
I just might pass this way again

*wry smile*

Your first one reminded me of this one which was significant when I was getting ready to leave the first time:
Carole King - It's Too Late

Looking that up led me to read about Carole King's own experience of an abusive relationship, about which she said:
"I had always been judgemental about women who stayed in abusive relationships. I'd always thought, if I found myself with a man like that, the first time he struck me I'd be out of there in a New York minute. I would never stay with an abuser. Until I did."

Likewise.

You have my sympathy for the loss of your mother, GfS. Yes, do that song for the funeral if you can. Hugs.
