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"
Do you want to get rocked?
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
I'm your average ordinary everyday kid
Happy to do nothin'
In fact that's what I did
I got a million ways to make my day
But daddy don't agree
'Cause when I try to get away
He says he got plans for me
Get your butt right out of bed
Stop buggin' me
Get up and move your sleepy head
Don't shake my tree
(He said mow the lawn) who me?
(Walk the dog) not my style, man
(Take out the trash) no way
(Tidy your room) c'mon get real
Sorry dad, gotta disappear
Let's get the rock out of here
Seven day weekend
Up all night
In at the deep end
Hang on tight
Won't take a minute
It won't take long
So get on in it
Come on, c'mon, c'mon
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way
Get it night 'n' day
C'mon let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
I'm your average ordinary everyday dude
Drivin' with my baby
To get her in the mood
She's dialin' through my radio
And I'm ready to make my move
But what she got ain't rock 'n' roll
And it really blew my groove
It was Chopin, Mozart, Beethoven
It makes me want to scream
Bach, Tschaikovsky, violins
Turn it off, that ain't my scene
Well I'm sorry girl
Here's my confession
I suppose a rock's out of the question?
Seven day weekend
Up all night
In at the deep end
Hang on tight
Won't take a minute
It won't take long
So get on in it
Come on, c'mon, c'mon
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way
Get it night 'n' day
C'mon let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
All I want to do is
Take a ride into the blue
Every time I want to love you
I get stuck inside my room
Heaven knows I'm sick 'n' tired
Of dancin' with this broom
I feel lucky today
Hey look at that, man
Do you want to get rocked?
Do you want to get rocked?
It won't take you a minute
It won't take that long, yeah
Get on, get with it
Oh, c'mon everybody
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Get on top baby
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Do you want to, do you want to?
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Get on top of it
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Love to rock your body baby
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way
Let's do it night 'n' day
Let's get out and play
Rock the night away
C'mon let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Do you want to get rocked?
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
I'm your average ordinary everyday kid

I got a million ways to make my day

Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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.
man this song is freakin awesome why can't every rock band be like them well yeah love this song peace out
this song's kicks! Love the lyrics, love the music!
This is miles better than nickelshit !
@gothic_hobbit<br /> Of course it is. Who would ever compare Def Leppard to Nickelback.
I heard this song today, for the first time in years, it brought back tons of cool memories.
a great party song - just scream and jump and feel good about the moment
cool tune, kinda goofy, but it rocks
This is a good song to listen to at a party.
This is my second favorite song off of "Adreanlize", because I love the lyrics. The band based this on Bart Simpson and the lyrics remind me of me and my teenage buddies.
wow, they based it on Bart Simpson? Cool! although i cant really see Bart driving to 'get his girl in the mood'!
This is an anthem akin to "We're Not Gonna Take It."
Just a 1980s "Screw you, I wanna rock" type of song. Rebel against the establishment.
I was never a huge fan of this tune, but I appreciate it more these days.
"Let's get the rock out of here" has to be both the cheesiest and greatest line in the history of rock & roll. Haha!
