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”
Digging a hole
And the walls are caving in,
Behind me,
Airs getting thin,
But I'm trying,
I'm breathing in,
Come find me,
It hasn't felt like this before,
It hasn't felt like home for you,
And I know it's easy to say,
But it's harder to feel this way,
I miss you more than I should,
Than I thought I could,
Can't get my mind off of you,
I know you're scared,
That I'll soon be over it,
That's part of it all,
Part of the beauty,
Of falling in love with you,
Is the fear that you won't fall,
It hasn't felt like this before,
It hasn't felt like home for you,
And I know it's easy to say,
But it's harder to feel this way,
I miss you more than I should,
Than I thought I could,
Can't get my mind off of you,
And I hate the phone,
But I wish you'd call,
Thought being alone,
Was better than,
Was better than,
And I know it's easy to say,
But it's harder to feel this way,
I miss you more than I should,
Than I thought I could,
Can't get my mind off of you,
Can't get my mind off of you,
And I know it's easy to say,
But it's harder to feel this way,
I miss you more than I should,
Than I thought I could,
Can't get my mind off of you,
And I know it's easy to say,
But it's harder to feel this way
And the walls are caving in,
Behind me,
Airs getting thin,
But I'm trying,
I'm breathing in,
Come find me,
It hasn't felt like this before,
It hasn't felt like home for you,
And I know it's easy to say,
But it's harder to feel this way,
I miss you more than I should,
Than I thought I could,
Can't get my mind off of you,
I know you're scared,
That I'll soon be over it,
That's part of it all,
Part of the beauty,
Of falling in love with you,
Is the fear that you won't fall,
It hasn't felt like this before,
It hasn't felt like home for you,
And I know it's easy to say,
But it's harder to feel this way,
I miss you more than I should,
Than I thought I could,
Can't get my mind off of you,
And I hate the phone,
But I wish you'd call,
Thought being alone,
Was better than,
Was better than,
And I know it's easy to say,
But it's harder to feel this way,
I miss you more than I should,
Than I thought I could,
Can't get my mind off of you,
Can't get my mind off of you,
And I know it's easy to say,
But it's harder to feel this way,
I miss you more than I should,
Than I thought I could,
Can't get my mind off of you,
And I know it's easy to say,
But it's harder to feel this way

@[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.

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.
I love this song - it's very well written. It resonates with me right now because of where I'm at, relationship wise. I'm not "falling in love" but have been in love for some time and things are in limbo right now, but anyway... I think the 2 phrases that stand out to me the most are:
"Part of the beauty of falling in love with you is the fear that you won't fall." Because this is so true, whether we enjoy it or not.
and
"I hate the phone but I wish you'd call"... I mean, who hasn't felt like that? It's such a paradox - hating something, but wanting it anyway because it would mean so much.
The part in the song that says.... "part of the beauty of falling in love with you, is the fear you wont fall."... is a sentence that I feel like almost has a double meaning... because you have the aspect of if I fall in love with you, you might not fall in love with me back.... but then there is the other meaning I am getting out of this song.. maybe "you wont fall" because you fall in love with this person, but you actually don't fall at all because they are right there to catch you when you fall for them... I don't know if this is how the song was intended to come across, but that is one of the messages it brings to me... maybe its wishful thinking? ha who knows... but my girlfriend just used this song for me... and either way I feel like it could be true.. I just really hope the reason shes not falling is because im there to catch her....
