Its been a long year
Since we last spoke
How's your halo?
Just between you and I
You and me and the satellites
I never believed you
I only wanted to
Before all of this
What did I miss?
Do you ever get homesick?
I can't get used to it
I can't get used to it
I'll never get used to it
I'll never get used to it

I'm under that night
I'm under those same stars
We're in a red car
You asleep at my side
Going in and out of the headlights
Could I have saved you?
Would that betrayed you?
I wanna burn this film
You alone with those pills
What you couldn't do I will
I forgive you
I'll forgive you
I'll forgive you
I forgive you

For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies
For blue, blue skies

(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue, blue skies
(I'll forgive you) For blue

    I can see how it fits into the prison scene. But I've always thought of this as a friend thinking about another friend who has committed suicide as people have said above.

    This is such a beautiful song. It takes you to another world. I was staring at my wall all through this song and I didn't even realise it.

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/

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.
