I adore the song
You’ll be in my heart by Phil Collins. It was written originally for his daughter Lily Collins as a lullaby. But it made its way to be used in the animated Disney movie Tarzan where the adoptive mother gorilla Kala promises to protect and love baby Tarzan no matter what.
The song is about an unbreakable bond of love and affection even if the person who you’re thinking of is not physically present at the time. It’s about protection and comfort/reassurance of that love even in adversity and the bond can’t be broken even by death, separation, or circumstances. It can be applied to all sorts of relationships even though in this context it’s used as unconditional love between parent and child. This song reminds me of my ex boyfriend because he will always be in my heart and people couldn’t understand how I fell in love with someone who was halfway across the world from me. It also reminds me of the love of my family both alive and those who passed away. It just reminds me of friends I have had in the past who are no longer around. It also represents the love I have for our family dog Keke. It’s a heartfelt nurturing song that is timeless because it is relatable on many different levels. It also reminds of my childhood when I watched Disney movies. I was seven almost when Tarzan came out. I still watch Disney movies because it makes me smile and I like the happy endings that real life often lacks. I’m young at heart and I never grew up. I still want to believe I’m magic and am full of childlike wonder. But I often feel sad and cynical too thinking life is not going to get much better than what I have now. My parents and family love me and protect me even if they drive me crazy sometimes. Even though I am sometimes angry with them. I will miss them when they pass away and I have to take care of myself. It’s going to be hard to take care of myself financially and psychologically. I’m terrified I will fail at taking care of myself and my needs. The next few years are about getting me towards taking steps towards independence and adulthood. I’m learning a lot later in life because of my mental health disabilities and my low motivation to make a change in my life. My family has tried to protect me from the worst of the worlds cruelty and indifference even if I find their actions infuriating like with my clothing or restrictive like with not being able to drive around myself.
