The Waterboys – Fisherman's Blues Lyrics | 8 years ago |
It could be a song about leaving a place which has bad memories, such as a city where traumatic things happened or even being given the right to die with dignity after a long battle with an illness. |
Tracy Chapman – The Promise Lyrics | 8 years ago |
This seems like a song about a woman who gave her child up for adoption. It could also be interpreted as a song for a loved one who has passed on. |

Sam Smith – Nirvana Lyrics | 9 years ago |
I think this song is about people having an affair and stealing moments to have sex. "Oh, we both know the truth If it were the real me and you This wouldn't be the right thing to do" They are both leaving their identities as partnered adults for a moment and putting them aside. They both know it is wrong to have sex with each other but they are doing it anyway. "It's too late to run away from it all It's too late to get away from it all I'm done with running so I give it to you" They can't run away from their commitments but they can give their bodies to each other. "This moment has caused a reaction Resulting in a reattachment Girl, you take me to Nirvana I don't think this will last 'Cause you're here in my arms" Nirvana is a state of bliss. The ecstasy of illicit lovemaking cannot last forever because the partnered woman can only be in his arms for a short time. "Oh, baby Oh, baby Oh, we both feel the same I'm not gonna give you my name And I don't think you want that to change" He's not going to marry this woman and give her his surname. He knows she doesn't want a commitment, just some fun on the side with him. "We're in this together We don't know who we are Even if it's moving too fast Maybe we should take it too far" They are both being bad together and they don't even recognize themselves because of what they are doing. He's telling her to go ahead and cheat with him no matter what the consequences. |
