This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Hello little darling
Ain't no need to worry
Feels right in my arms now
Why go home, be all alone?
But if the sunshines know that's because of you
Just know that's true.
When all your moneys gone
Where will you be?
If your love is strong
That's all you need.
One time you know I love you
With your funky ass style
I love you twice a month since you had our first child
Our love runs deep like the blood in my veins
I love you always, and always the same
Love remains.
Love your every change
Love your every phase
The passing of the day, plus when your away
Oh darling darling if you stay my love will never change
Feel the power when our 2 hearts will combine
The power is yours and the power is mine
When love is born you know the sky must cry
Write you love letters till my pen runs dry
If you stay, good lovin make me wanna fly
If you go, rise and fall-dip and dive
You who I'm with so I shine so bright
I love you darling till the day that I die.
Darling darling I said now where'd you go?
I said I'll never know, the way you come and go.
When all your moneys gone
Where will you be?
If your love is strong
That's all you need
Call a 911 and its emergency
But even in the 912 do you feel the urgent see
To people all around the world who never heard of me
Just leave another message please
Lord please guide and protect me
I got the love in my heart
I got fire in my soul
This no type of fire that nobody can control
But when I'm up on the mic
I got the mind overload
They never test me just because they don't rock and roll
I'm singing oh my God Lord have mercy
Thought fools were gettin bad
But now they're even gettin worse see
Somethings can't be healed up by no doctors or no nurses
It's time to stop the fussin' and the fightin' and the cursin'
This world is hopeless,
But I love it anyway
That's why they givin all the good love for free
And if you need love, with your lovin are you brave?
Come on and give a little good love to me
That's what they want.
Darling darling I said now whered you go?
I said I'll never know, the way you come and go.
When all your moneys gone
Where will you be?
If your love is strong,
That's all you need.
It's a long long way from home but hold on.
It's a long it's a long long way but hold on.
It's a long it's a long long way but hold on.
It's a long it's a long long way but hold on.
Call a 911 and it's emergency
Lord please guide and protect me
Call a 911 and it's emergency
Lord please guide and protect me
Ain't no need to worry
Feels right in my arms now
Why go home, be all alone?
But if the sunshines know that's because of you
Just know that's true.
When all your moneys gone
Where will you be?
If your love is strong
That's all you need.
One time you know I love you
With your funky ass style

Our love runs deep like the blood in my veins
I love you always, and always the same
Love remains.
Love your every change
Love your every phase
The passing of the day, plus when your away
Oh darling darling if you stay my love will never change
Feel the power when our 2 hearts will combine
The power is yours and the power is mine
When love is born you know the sky must cry
Write you love letters till my pen runs dry
If you stay, good lovin make me wanna fly
If you go, rise and fall-dip and dive
You who I'm with so I shine so bright
I love you darling till the day that I die.

@[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.
I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
Slightly Stoopid , just reminds you of summer time. Where you can have all the fun you want , as for the song "Officer". The party is not over until the break of dawn. I like that line from that song a lot. So snap another B and drink it down. (Anyways) This song rocks "Mellow Mood" It just makes you mellow and chill.
Classic love song is what this is. He is telling his audience how in love he is. It is real, and that is why it is one of my favorite by them:D
i hope this band will one day become popular enought to have more comments... anyway, this song is definitley one of thier best chill songs... their soooo nasty live.... rock on stoopid people
Yes this is an amazing song! It has a particularly special meaning to my wife and I because it was our wedding song =)....This song is all about being totally engulfed with the love that you find and not caring about anything else. The world becomes trivial when you find the love that can bring you to a "mellow mood"
what does " i love you twice a month since you had our first child"? yea, but tight song...definately puts me in a mellow mood
this is a chilll ass song.. . the part when g love goes off with i got the love in my heart i got fire in my soul this no type of fire that nobody can control but when I'm up on the mic I got the mind overload they never test me just because they dont rock and roll I'm singing oh my God Lord have mercy thought fools were gettin bad but now they're even gettin worse see somethings cant be healed up by no doctors or no nurses it's time to stop the fussin' and the fightin' and the cursin' this world is hopeless, but i love it anyway thats why they givin all the good love for free and if u need love, with your lovin are you brave? come on and give a little good love to me thats what they want.
i think it's g love at his best
I love this song...I love it to death. Haha I'll play it at my wedding someday for sure
gfunk I was wondering the same thing...all I know is since my baby girl was born it's only been twice a month I get sugar from my woman.
It's not "I love you twice a month" he actuallys says "I love you twice as much" Listen close, it totally makes sense!
This song reminds of summer , I live on a beach with the water reaching out to the sun , that's when i put on my ipod and listen to this song.
