It's far beyond your reach
It holds a place in time
Somewhere ahead is the back of the line
I can't relate to your mistakes
Awkwardly speaking with nothing to say

Caught up in your life, excuses are so lame
You may be different but I'm still the same
The reasons that you thought
The intention that you caught
You say things are simple
We both know they're not
You can't let it go

Whoa, you can't but I know
Whoa, whoa, you don't even know

It's not in what you do, more in what you say
It's not in what you do, more in what you say
It's not in what you do, more in what you say
It's not in what you do, what you do

A million questions asked
The remnants of the past
You've always been denied
But always by your side
I've always tried to, to understand you
The world's not learning from you
Whoa, whoa

It's not in what you do, more in what you say
It's not in what you do, more in what you say
It's not in what you do, more in what you say
It's not in what you do, what you do

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”

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

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.
