Still I remember hearts that beat yeah, yeah
I remember you and me,yeah, oh yeah
Tangled in hotel sheets
You wore me out
You wore me out

I remember honey lips and words so true
I remember nonstop earthquake dreams of you
You're coming on fast like good dreams do
All night long

Still can feel you kiss me love
Still can see your brown skin shine, shine
Still can feel you kiss me love
Come on and drive me wild (me wild)

And you move like water, yeah
And you broke like waves
I've never been deeper, so far gone
Your sister in the next room with the television on

Still can feel you kiss me love
Still can see your brown skin shine, shine
Still can feel you kiss me love
Come on and drive me wild (me wild)

Come on and drive me wild
Come on and drive me wild

I remember hearts that beat,yeah
I remember you and me
Tangled in hotel sheets (for hours)

Still can feel you kiss me love
Still can see your brown skin shine, shine
Still can feel you kiss me love
Come on and drive me wild (me wild)

Still can feel you kiss me love
Still can see your eyes like diamonds, diamonds
Memories are strong enough
To come on and drive me wild
Come on and drive me wild

    I saw him live, and this wwas a really powerful song. and its about having sex in a hotel room in Miami. Thats all there is to it. whether there together anymroe or not dose not matter, it was an amazing memory. My favorite part is 'your sister in the next room with the television on' becuase its kinda like youre hooking up with some one and they family is close by, and they could totally walk in, but they have an idea of whats going on so they give you the privacy you never had to ask for. I also love the 'brown skin shine' becasue it reminds me of being tan after a day at the beaqh and how your tan glows as it gets darker at night

    i love!!!!!! this song , the lyrics are so deep , intimate and natural. well i think it's about some knda of a forbidden relationship where the two people must be racially different since he talks about brown skin and not bronzed.

    Its about remembering someone you're no longer with. But not in a depressing way. You remember all the great times and you smile to yourself.

    I don't think this is about forbidden love at all. I think mentioning the sister in the next room perhaps hints that this was a young romance where the girl still lived with her parents.

    He's remembering her fondly and in a happier way, as osumarko said. But there is still a melancholy tone to it.

    I feel like this song is about remembering an old lover, and remembering the good times at that. I'm not sure whether this leans more to genuinely missing the person, or simply remembering and being thankful for the good times.

    What an amazing song. The bridge where he just goes into falsetto is great - it feels like he's saying so much without saying any real words. That's the strongest part of the song, I think. There are some really well-written lines otherwise. I think this song is just about making love and it being perfect.

    this song is great.... young romance...little rebellious...but definitely you can tell he's a little sad about all of it....i mean hell....happy "past" memories that cant be anymore are usually pretty bittersweet to think about, whether the relationship ended terrible or very friendly....still sad too look back on happy times that can not be recreated.

    This song is my favorite song from the new album "some mad hope" - i only got the CD last week and i love it!

    The line "i remember nonstop earthquake dreams of you" is one of the most amazing lines i have ever heard, i think this line can relate to the most amazing relationship one finds themselves in...when u think about someone so much that you dream of them and u remember the dream long after you wake up!

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
