I don't believe in the smile that you leave
When you walk away and say goodbye
Well, I don't expect the world to move underneath me
But for God's sake, could you try
I know that you're true to me
You're always there, you say you care
I know that you want to be mine

Where is your heart, cause I don't really feel you
Where is your heart, what I really want is to believe you
Is it so hard to give me what I need
I want your heart to bleed, that's all I'm asking for, oh
Where is your heart

I don't understand, your love is so cold
It's always me who's reaching out for your hand
And I've always dreamed that love would be effortless
Like a petal falling to the ground
A dreamer following his dream

Where is your heart, cause I don't really feel you
Where is your heart, what I really want is to believe you
Is it so hard to give me what I need
I want your heart to bleed, that's all I'm asking for, oh
Where is your heart

It seems so much is left unsaid
But you can say anything
Oh, anytime you need
Baby, it's just you and me, oh yeah

I know that you're true to me
You're always there, you say you care
I know that you want to be mine

Where is your heart, cause I don't really feel you
Where is your heart, what I really want is to believe you
Is it so hard to give me what I need
I want your heart to bleed, that's all I'm asking for, yeah

Where is your heart, cause I don't really feel you
Where is your heart, what I really want is to believe you
Is it so hard to give me what I need
I want your heart to bleed, and that's all I'm asking for
Where is your heart [Repeat: x4]

    "i want your heart to bleed, thats all im asking for", its a greta line. i think tis about her fairytale expectations is what love is like, but in reality her boyfriend's love is very different. although she knows he is faithful, his love is cold, and shes saying she needs him to show his lvoe, and show where his heart is.

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”

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.

Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“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.

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.
