Cover art for Love Alone lyrics by Thriving Ivory

The minute I heard the piano opening on this song, I knew something good had come my way. I'm listening to the song and I still find it as comforting as I did last year. Whenever I'm in a bad mood I play this song and the negative emotions dissolve. Last winter I had periods of unhappiness (I won't say depression because I haven't been diagnosed as having such) and the opening lines of this song cheered me up so much. "I know you're hurt, I know you're bruised... but it's only for a moment." I think this song is the reason why Thriving Ivory is my second band now...

The meaning is pretty much what IAmAngel said above me, so I won't go into that. :)
