In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Just charge it to my account
I hope I haven't gone over my limit
With interest rates so swift
No need to scream and shout
No doubt if women are from Venus now
I'll get to them somehow
All I want to do is please you
Please myself by living my life too
And all the stupid things I do
Have absolutely no reflection on
How I feel about you
How I feel ohhh
All the stupid things I do have absolutely no reflection on
How I feel about you
How I feel about you, yeah
Yes I recall
Skipping on breakfast to play basketball
And feeling two feet small
Sometimes you read like William Shakes
Your scent is sweet like Betty Crooker bakes
I'd love to have your cake and eat it to.
All I want to do is please you
Please myself by living my life too
And all the stupid things I do
Have absolutely no reflection on
How I feel about you
How I feel ohhh
All the stupid things I do have absolutely no reflection on
How I feel about you
How I feel about you, yeahhhh no no no no no nooo
All I want to do is please you
Please myself by living my life too
And all the stupid things I do
Have absolutely no reflection on
How I feel about you
How I feel ohhh
Oh how I feel about you
How I feel about you yeah
Ohh Oooo Yeahhh Noo ooo La La La La Laaa
I hope I haven't gone over my limit
With interest rates so swift
No need to scream and shout
No doubt if women are from Venus now
I'll get to them somehow
All I want to do is please you
Please myself by living my life too
And all the stupid things I do
Have absolutely no reflection on
How I feel about you
How I feel ohhh
All the stupid things I do have absolutely no reflection on
How I feel about you
How I feel about you, yeah
Yes I recall
Skipping on breakfast to play basketball
And feeling two feet small
Sometimes you read like William Shakes
Your scent is sweet like Betty Crooker bakes
I'd love to have your cake and eat it to.
All I want to do is please you
Please myself by living my life too
And all the stupid things I do
Have absolutely no reflection on
How I feel about you
How I feel ohhh
All the stupid things I do have absolutely no reflection on
How I feel about you
How I feel about you, yeahhhh no no no no no nooo
All I want to do is please you
Please myself by living my life too
And all the stupid things I do
Have absolutely no reflection on
How I feel about you
How I feel ohhh
Oh how I feel about you
How I feel about you yeah
Ohh Oooo Yeahhh Noo ooo La La La La Laaa

@[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.

Ed Sheeran

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.

Page

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.
