2011 A Song for You 0:30 is what you say when words are not enough but they are all you have left. He is at the end of the road, turning back to the one who stayed. No more hiding. Just the truth, rough and unpolished.
What he owes cannot be repaid with anything but honesty. So he gives that ... his unvarnished self, right here, right now, before the music fades and the silence takes over.
Tired of empty promises and neglect now. She demands reciprocity in love going forward. Past efforts mean nothing without present action shown. Respect must be earned consistently. No more accepting less than deserved. Standards raised permanently. His excuses no longer satisfy her needs.
Robin Williams played Adrian Cronauer in Good Morning Vietnam, an Armed Forces Radio DJ who used music as a weapon against the insanity of war. Martha Reeves & The Vandellas' 'Nowhere to Run' blasts from the radio while Cronauer talks faster than the bullets. The song is about being trapped. The war is about the same thing.
