Subject: RE: Animaterra: Songs about women coping?
Boy, now you got me thinking about domestic violence. Phyllis Horne did a song called "Your Definition of Love" that I like. Part of the lyrics:

Where is the last girl who ran around with you?
Is she in her mama's arms crying?
Or is she a friend
You still see now and then
Let's explore your definition of love.

If we can start out just holding hands
I'll try to keep an open mind
And compare your talking
With the way you really treat me
And explore your definition of love.

She's inspiring to me.
