I don't want this moment to ever end
Where everything's nothing without you
I'll wait here forever just to, to see you smile
'Cause it's true, I am nothing without you

Through it all, I made my mistakes
I stumble and fall but I mean these words

I want you to know
With everything I won't let this go
These words are my heart and soul
I'll hold on to this moment you know
As I bleed my heart out to show
And I won't let go

Thoughts read unspoken, forever in vow
And pieces of memories fall to the ground
I know what I didn't have so, I won't let this go
'Cause it's true, I am nothing without you

All the streets where I walked alone
With nowhere to go
I've come to an end

I want you to know
With everything I won't let this go
These words are my heart and soul
I'll hold on to this moment you know
As I bleed my heart out to show
And I won't let go

In front of your eyes, it falls from the skies
When you don't know what you're looking to find
In front of your eyes, it falls from the skies
When you just never know what you will find
(What you will find, what you will find, what you will find, what you will find)

I don't want this moment to ever end
Where everything's nothing without you

I want you to know
With everything I won't let this go
These words are my heart and soul
I'll hold on to this moment you know
As I bleed my heart out to show
And I won't let (I want you to know) go
With everything I won't let this go
These words are my heart and soul
I'll hold on to this moment you know
As I bleed my heart out to show
And I won't let go

    My Interpretation

    No, it's about a devotion to anything, anyone. Though devotion could easily be mistaken for obsession. It's easy to say that this song is about a boy or a girl, but this song is much more than that. It's about a life-changing moment, whether it be meeting the love of your life, gaining that one thing in your life that was missing, or memories.

    "In front of your eyes it falls from the skies when you don't know what you're looking to find."

    Myself, personally. It's me and my feelings right now. No matter what I'll love that boy with all my heart and all of me. Although things may not go my way, there is still no doubt in my mind that he loves me.

    this song is so powerful. it explains how you feel when you were lonely and depressed all your life and then finally find that special person that cares for you and you cant imagine your life without them and never want this love to end.

    in my opinion its the best song on the record.

    My Interpretation

    First off i'd like to say this is one of my favorite songs of all time. After my breakup i gained new insight to what the song might mean.

    The first lines of the song is very powerful. I think hes saying everything's nothing without you and i wouldn't have it any other way.

    "Through it all, I made my mistakes I stumble and fall, but I mean these words

    I want you to know With everything I won't let this go, these words are my heart and soul I'll hold on to this moment you know, as I bleed my heart out to show And I won't let go"

    Even though they broke up or had a falling out because of his mistakes hes not going to give it up. Hes obviously remembering a moment in time where everything was perfect and hes not going to let it go.

    "Thoughts read unspoken, forever in doubt Pieces of memories fall to the ground I know what I didn't have so, I won't let this go 'Cause it's true, I am nothing without you"

    I feel like the first line of this verse might mean that he said something to her over text or something and maybe forever in doubt means the girl is doubting it or the guy doubts if he got his point through. A very cryptic line indeed. Next he's reflecting on things (maybe qualities) that he didn't have so he want to try again knowing he needs those.

    "All the streets where I walked alone, with nowhere to go I've come to an end"

    The guy obviously is lonely and cant stand it anymore.

    "In front of your eyes, it falls from the skies When you don't know what you're looking to find In front of your eyes, it falls from the skies When you just never know what you will find (what you will find)"

    I think hes reflecting back on when they first got together. Maybe he wasn't looking for love but he found her. Or maybe he was upset or occupied with something or someone else in his life and she came in to make things better.

    Overall i think this is a very powerful song and has more meaning than first meets the eye. (or rather, ear)

    As for the motivation behind it I would say it heavily entails Derycks love for Avril and how his days of loneliness are over and that now he's finally complete. Truely Touching . . .

    I'm happy they weren't afraid to put a song like this. A great band matures even more with this CD. The lyrics are pretty straight forward...but still one of the best on the disc.

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
Album art
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.
Album art
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
