Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Mortal once again
Making out, watch me pretend
And you whisper words forbidden
To see if I've been listening
Well now I'm listening
We won't both get our way
If we do, it won't be tonight anyway
So I hold you by the jaw
And kiss you to be sure
With so much more than before
It took a wild heart to tame mine
And it took a wild heart to charm
Now a wild heart has gone and floored me
With this ever lasting glance
But this ever lasting glance
I wouldn't have you any other way
Who wants love that makes sense anyway?
I guess I asked for the truth
I guess I asked for it, brutal and unchained
But tonight it sounds improvised
Whatever has you so inspired
While I know you're inspired
And no one is better armed
To tear me down with a sleight of the tongue
And I could do the same
And see how long you can keep face
Let's see who keeping face
But it took a wild heart to tame mine
And it took a wild heart to charm
Now a wild heart has gone and floored me
With this ever lasting glance
But this ever lasting glance
I wouldn't have it any other way
Who wants love that makes sense anyway?
I wouldn't have you any other way
I don't want what makes sense anyway
But it took a wild heart to tame mine
And it took a wild heart to charm
Now a wild heart has gone and floored me
With this ever lasting glance
With her ever lasting glance
Making out, watch me pretend
And you whisper words forbidden
To see if I've been listening
Well now I'm listening
We won't both get our way
If we do, it won't be tonight anyway
So I hold you by the jaw
And kiss you to be sure
With so much more than before
It took a wild heart to tame mine
And it took a wild heart to charm
Now a wild heart has gone and floored me
With this ever lasting glance
But this ever lasting glance
I wouldn't have you any other way
Who wants love that makes sense anyway?
I guess I asked for the truth
I guess I asked for it, brutal and unchained
But tonight it sounds improvised
Whatever has you so inspired
While I know you're inspired
And no one is better armed
To tear me down with a sleight of the tongue
And I could do the same
And see how long you can keep face
Let's see who keeping face
But it took a wild heart to tame mine
And it took a wild heart to charm
Now a wild heart has gone and floored me
With this ever lasting glance
But this ever lasting glance
I wouldn't have it any other way
Who wants love that makes sense anyway?
I wouldn't have you any other way
I don't want what makes sense anyway
But it took a wild heart to tame mine
And it took a wild heart to charm
Now a wild heart has gone and floored me
With this ever lasting glance
With her ever lasting glance

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.
