Day 2. (Favorite love song)
“I’ll Be Your Mirror” – The Velvet Underground and Nico
There are too many great love songs to narrow it down to one, but this perfect, hymn-like song has been an enduring favorite. “Please put down your hands…’cause I see you,” is a line that conveys a simple and profound intimacy that transcends romance — this song could address a lover, a spouse, a best friend, a child, anyone with hands, although you substitute “paws” in a pinch.
