(I hoped it would be)
I want love to make me happy
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to make me cry
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be a promise
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to make me die

I want love to be a river
I want love to be the wind
I want love to be forever
I want love to be a sin

(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be an arrow
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be the heart
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be a painting
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be the art

I want love to be a building
I want love to be a bridge
I want love to be a castle
I want love to be the edge

(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be a window
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be the sea
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be real
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be a train

I want love to be the magic
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be a spell
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be heaven
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be hell

I want love to be the circus
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be the fair
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be the devil
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be the dare

I want love to make me tender
I want love to make me wild
I want love to be a teacher
I want love to be a child

I want love to be a cadalliac
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be a ship
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be a journey
(I hoped it would be)
I want love to be a trip

I want love
I want love
I want love

Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, some kind of love
(I hoped it would be)
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, some kind of love
(I hoped it would be)

Love,
Yeah
L.o.v.e
Love isn't everything I hoped it would be
No,no

(I hoped it would be)
(I hoped it would be)
(I hoped it would be)
(I hoped it would be)

Everything I hoped it would be
I wish
I wish
I wish it would be
Everything I want it to be

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.
