All alone in the cold-hearted night, I was fading fast.
You came to me in a whole new way and it came to pass.
I can't believe You opened up the way,
With tears now, I ask

Don't let go of my heart,
Don't ever leave me here too long in isolation.
Don't let go of my heart,
I do believe You're here, to offer consolation.

There were signs all along the road
And throughout my life.
Gentle reminders of the way I should go,
And You were by my side.
Oh let me see what I long to behold, open my eyes.

Don't let go of my heart,
Don't ever leave me here too long in isolation.
Don't let go of my heart,
I do believe You're here, securing my salvation.

The dawn of light is nearing,
The night is disappearing,
I'm looking through the clearing
Waiting to embrace You.

Don't let go of my heart,
For You are with me here,
I know You'll leave me never,
Don't let go of my heart,
You are my guiding light,
Forever and forever.

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”

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.
