All the things that they make you say
And all of the love that you hide away
I'll pick you up and it will be all right
I'll pick you up and it will be tonight

She rode a horse into my head
She won't discipline the children
And now they're running wild on the beach
And I don't care oh, I don't care
No I don't care hey hey hey
It's the middle of the night and you're here
Playing dominoes and drinking beer
I tried to think of something deep to say
But my well is dripping dry today, hey
Hey, hey hey

    My Opinion

    When I first found this song oddly at the end of their cd, It was just nice, and catchy.. I'd sing along thinking, I have no idea what the h##l hes talking about.. years later (now) it pops into my head. I come here.

    My picture finally fell in place years ago while driving my car. she rode a horse into my head..OK. He's on the beach in a beach chair, I picture his wife there. The kids are running around. One of his daughters has a little play horse (i pictured a real small plastic thing) She's fake running it in the air like kids do. She bumps it into his head a little bit to get his attention, he smiles but doesn't really look at her, but he knows at that moment he's happy. Later he thinks back at that moment when she did that and how content he was.. . then back to his fond memories of his wife, the fun of hanging out with her at the beginning. now they have kids, settled down, He thinks back at that moment at the beach, and writes that line. He later adds the earlier times he hung out with his wife, perhaps an uneasy time he didnt know what to say, and young excitement of first love stuff. Nice song

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
