Don't worry, come closer.
Don't cry.
Ahh don't cry.
Ahh don't cry.
Ahh

Get moving or I'll kick your ass(background)

Ba-da ba-da ba ba-da,
Ba-da ba da

Ooohh I watch you comb your hair in different light.
You change the chair and seem to think that's alright.
I understand,
You need a change.
When you make that change,
Don't look to see
I'm alright.

Now that I look at you in different light

Change the chair
A violet unicorn to me that's alright

I understand,
You need a change

The world will elevate you. The world will elevate you.
And when you make that change the world will elevate you

And if I told you then that I could cry,
Would you take my tears and wash the sun rise?
A man afraid has no shame

So when you take those tears don't look to see I'm alright
Look to see I'm alright

When you take those tears don't look to see I'm alright
Look to see I'm alright

How can I tell you?
How can I explain?

I I
I want your love, I need a change

In me.

Ba-da ba-da ba, ba-da
Ba-da ba da

Why should they come?
They were supposed to die back there.
But I didn't, for the second time.
Don't worry they'll come,
They know.
Do what?
That I'm not like anyone else?

Suddenly,
You and I will wait
In your dreams.

Suddenly,
You and I will wait
In your dreams
Tonight night
We'll finally change
You and I will wait
And maybe time will tell

All over
All over
All over
All over
All over

You and I will need a
You and I

You and I will need a
You and I

You and I will need a better place.
To start all over again

Oh babe,
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow

Will be their brighter day?
Be their brighter day-heyday-hey

All over
All over
All over
We'll finally change
With a lesson
With a lesson
Oh and oh no.

Why do they do that?
Hahahaha
Why do you want to do that? no-one else ever has.

Because no one else ever has.

You've got no fear of communists when they're finished(?)
They have only killed him for questioning.
Don't be too fond of Christians.
Never

Come out.
No, I want in.
I'll speak to her, leave her.

I've got to go to the hospital.
The guy has taken me in.
Give it to me
Please let me quit
Oh go on
Just don't leave me here.

Ah whether he thinks this might be helpful.
Can you go back when he was evaluated?
Charlie was evaluated in July
His heart valve was causing him a problem.
I know, that's why I don't understand it
Well, if one of them thinks that it says symbiosis

Loving Chile there's,
Always something new
Always something new
Always something new
Always something
Always something

Darling yeah there's something
Always something always something

Soaking wet

Yeah

    A song about people going in different directions in their lives. Meanwhile, cherishing what they've had, exictedly looking ahead to the unknown future, with a promise of never forgetting the experiences shared...

    P.S. One of my favorite songs of all time...

    Really beautiful song about relationships, laid back and melancholic at the same time. The film samples give it a dream-like feel - it always makes me sleepy.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Blink-182

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
