the sun has set,
the leaves are falling,
the air is cold and my mind is sinking into a state
in which I dream...
of you.

if tonight is the last night I'll see you,
then tonight I will be yours,
everyday after that in the night
I will dream that I'm with you,
and promise I'll never let you go...
let you go

weeks have gone by,
since I have kissed you,
I long to hold you firm in my arms,
and whisper the three most sacred words in the world...

your mystery casts a spell on me,
I'm a prisoner of a want and need,
I cross the distance,
to feel your touch and grace,
you walk away and I wonder...

will I see you again...

    This is my second favorite June Spirit song, close behind On the Eigth Day. This song is awesome, as are the June Spirit, and I will definitely be picking up their new album when it comes out.

    Subject to Change perfectly puts into words what i could never describe how i feel for my girlfriend. It is a beautful song, and he never wants his time with his girl to end, i feel the exact same way. She means the world to me, and like him, i havent seen her in weeks. I would do anything to be able to hold her im my arms right now!! Thank you so much June Spirit.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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/

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
