You get... a lot more than 3, cause I vaguely feel like some of this is cheating somehow? Like that it's just too damn obvious to count for the most part, but it's what comes to mind? Also this is not a playlist so much as a collection of songs, so don't expect any flow here.

Atheist Christmas Carol - Vienna Teng
You are safe here, you know now. Don't forget, don't forget I love, I love, I love you.

Crazy Dreams - Smash Cast
Here's to you free souls, you firefly chasers, tree climbers, porch swingers, air guitar players; here's to you fearless dancers, shakin' walls in your bedrooms. There's a lot of wonder left inside of me and you; thank God, even crazy dreams come true.

Everything Possible
As the moon sets its sails to carry you to sleep over the midnight sea, I will sing you a song no one sang to me; may it keep you good company: You can be anybody you want to be, you can love whomever you will, you can travel any country where your heart leads, and know I will love you still

Raise You Up/Just Be - Kinky Boots (in very strange bits and pieces, but it works, okay?)
Once I was afraid, but then you came along; put your faith in me and I was challenged to be strong.... One: Pursue the truth. Two: Learn something new. Three: Accept yourself and you'll accept others too. Four: Let love shine. Five: Let pride be your guide. Six: You change the world when you change your mind!

Heartlines (Acoustic) - Florence and the Machine
But know, in some way I’m there with you; up against the wall on a Wednesday afternoon. Just keep follow the heartlines on your hand.

Flaws (Acoustic) - Bastille (... yeah, no, I will not be able to explain this association, it's just there.)
You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve, and I have always buried them deep beneath the ground. Dig them up - let’s finish what we started; dig them up so nothing’s left unturned. All of your flaws and all of my flaws: when they have been exhumed, we’ll see that we need them to be who we are - without them we’d be doomed.


and unfortunately it's really hard for me to think of caretaker songs that are more about... being a caretaker than they are about talking to the people you take care of? But this is the closest I have, and I have... really deep chords that are struck by this song that I just can't explain:

1 Samuel 15:23 - the Mountain Goats
My house will be for all people who have nowhere to go; my supply of shining crystals a shield against the snow. There's more like me where I come from, so mark our shapes. Go down to the netherworld, plant grapes.
