It's an illusion
There's too much confusion
It's an illusion
There's too much confusion

Down, down, down in your heart
Find, find, find the secret
Turn, turn, turn, turn your head around
Baby we can do it
We can do it alright

Do you believe in love at first sight?
It's an illusion, I don't care
Do you believe I can make you feel better
Too much confusion, come on over here

Can we get together?
I really, I really wanna be with you
Come on, check it out with me
I hope you, I hope you feel the same way too

I've searched
I've searched
I've searched my whole life
To find, to find, to find the secret
And all I did was open up my eyes
Baby we can do it
We can do it alright

Do you believe that we can change the future?
Do you believe I can make you feel better?

Can we get together?
I really, I really wanna be with you
Come on, check it out with me
I hope you, I hope you feel the same way too

Can we get together?
I really, I really wanna be with you
Come on, check it out with me
I hope you, I hope you feel the same way too

It's an illusion
There's too much confusion
I'll make you feel better
If it's better at the start
Then it's sweeter in the end

Do you believe in love at first sight?
It's an illusion, I don't care
Do you believe I can make you feel better
Too much confusion, come on over here

Can we get together?
I really, I really wanna be with you
Come on check it out with me
I hope you, I hope you feel the same way too

Can we get together?
I really wanna be with you
Come on check it out with me
I hope you feel the same way too

It's all an illusion
There's too much confusion
I'll make you feel better
If it's better at the start
Then it's sweeter in end

    Get Together is a beautiful Madonna song mixed with tender sentiment, longing, yearning, joy and release. The knowing mixture of joy, wisdom, understanding and sadness gets her through. Madonna has made me feel better through her joyous and happy MDNA Confessions and Ray of Light Personae. Your Move, Madge!

    It is NOT about extasy. This song means that life is an illusion, that it can get really confusing but that all we have to do is get together and love each other, regardless of what happens. SEARCH FOR YOURSELF, LOVE YOURSELF, OPEN YOUR EYES AND LOVE THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU.

    I love this song. It's about fast love, not the real kind.

    Amazing song... very much about hooking up with someone that you have perhaps a few feelings for.

    It very well could be about extasy or wanting to be with someone who might not really want to be with you. Could be both. That's the beauty of lyrics, you can take them and imply them to your life how ever it fits!

    This is a really good song, and I don't think this song is about drugs. Madonna's songs on the album "Confessions on a Danc floor" are all pretty much straight forward. As much as I hate to admit it, Madonna is still a pop star, and that tends to mean she writes what she feels and not really use imagery, such as the newer alternative bands do.

    I think this song is her just rationalizing her sudden attraction towards someone. She knows if you love someone so quickly, it's probably not real love.

    "It's an illusion, I don't care"

    I recall my first crushes, and this is how I felt towards them. I thought they would be "the one."

    As far as being bitter in the start and sweeter in the end, I think that's just a reference to relationships in general. If two people can be in pain together and still love, than the pure love will be even sweeter.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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.

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/
