I can't even think of words to match the way i'm feeling
I don't even think a book could say enough for you
I can only try my best, to put it in a song i guess
You try to speak, i know you tell the truth

If i could freeze our small amount of time together
Then we could make believe this world would never end (make believe this world would never end)
Unfortunatly truth is cold
So you stay young while i get old
But always know, i'm your best friend

Nothing is the same
Everything is a better change
Sometimes i see silence in your eyes
Let it all crash down
When it ends it begins with you
I'm gonna learn every time you do

And i'm as scared as anybody who has done this
I wouldn't give it up for nothing fi
You took my life, turned it around
And put my feet back on the ground
I owe you, eternally

Nothing is the same
Everything is a better change
Sometimes i see silence in your eyes
Let it all crash down
When it ends it begins with you
I'm gonna learn every time you do

I'm always
I'm always
I'm always here

I'm always
I'm always
I'm always here

Nothing is the same
Everything is a better change
Sometimes i see silence in your eyes
Let it all crash down
When it ends it begins with you
I'm gonna learn every time you do

    I'm not sure why, {because there really isnt anything exceptionally great about this song} I really like this song. Its catchy i suppose. The guitar, drums, and vocals all mix so well. It sounds great when they go from loud to soft.

    Very sweet and touching song written for his oldest daughter. You can feel his pain and love come through in this song. A master at writing top o' the heap lyrics. His music, songs, and legacy are still and will always be missed but never forgotten...NFTS

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
