(Come with Jessie)
Prom is coming
It's on the 17th of May
And I got a message
I want to convey

I'll buy a nice suit
And you can wear a pretty dress
You will watch me dance
And realize I am the best

[Chorus]
Will you go to prom with me
(And dance [x6])

Slow dance
And fast dance
And clap out hands (clap, clap, clap)

My moves will be so hot
You'll have to stand under the fan

This dance will be better
Then your favorite ice cream
I cut like a knife
And dance like a dream

[Chorus x2]

Let's go to prom
Ahhh let's go to prom
Let's go to the prom
Let's go to the prom

(I buy nothing
Jessie buy nothing)

[Chorus x4]

Come with Jessie

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”

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.
