Sat up in the dark for so long
Just living my life on my own
Then right up outta the blue, bumped into you
I was so amused by your smile boo
Wantin' you to call my phone
So me and you can talk just a little mo'
I didn't know what to do, I was feelin' you
Hopin' you be cool by hangin' out too
I don't know what happened, got people steady askin'
How you go to sleep mad one day the next wake up so happy
Love works like magic and it's so true, my mind can't grasp it
I'm just glad that I got you in my life

I think about us (All day)
Dream about you (Always)
Love ain't always (Complicated)
I think about us (All day)
Dream about you (Always)
Love ain't always (Complicated)

If I'm lovin' it don't take long
People speculatin' that it won't last long
But that just can't be true 'cause I be lovin' you
Like you never knew that I could do
I would never let go, gotta hold on
'Cause you done made me and you a happy home
And I'll give all me to you
I'll do whatever you ask me to 'cause boy you're my
Biggest blessing, they can keep on askin'
How I go to sleep mad one day the next wake up so happy
Well love works like magic and it's so true my mind can't grasp it
I'm so glad that you made me your wife

I think about us (All day)
Dream about you (Always)
Love ain't always (Complicated)
I think about us (All day)
Dream about you (Always)
Love ain't always (Complicated)

Boy, you make me feel so beautiful
And I ain't never gonna let you go
People say this ain't how it's supposed to go
But I refuse to believe 'cause it happened to me
One day you're standing in the middle of the world
And you don't where you're goin'
All of a sudden your whole life change
Then life finally gives you somethin' back
It's been a mean world without you
Boy, I love ya, I love ya

I think about us (All day)
(Boy, you make me feel so beautiful)
Dream about you (Always)
Love ain't always (Complicated)
(And I ain't never gonna let you go)

I think about us (All day)
Dream about you (Always)
Love ain't always (Complicated)
I think about us (All day)
Dream about you (Always)
Love ain't always (Complicated)

I think about us (All day)
Dream about you (Always)
Love ain't always (Complicated)

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.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
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.

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/

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
