This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I left you in the rain
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
Your reflection in the pane
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
Apples, pears, prunes, and plums
His favorite food, I told his mum
Wait for him at the end of the slide
When he climbs the stairs, stay by his side
I heard you got some rain
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
Looks like we're in for the same
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
I'm going early, won't wave good-bye
Tell him I love him; look him in the eye
I've learned how to mourn; I've learned how to miss
Let me disappear with this kiss
"Tuesday
A mix of sun and clouds
With a forty percent chance of showers
Early morning then sunny
Wind west twenty kilometers an hour
Gusting to 44
High of 22
UV index 50 and moderate"
Bird, book, and basketball
Squirrel, dog, and learning how to crawl
I found my heart when he came
Let my leaving leave like rain
I watched you from the train
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
When I come back I'll see you again
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
I'll listen for you every morning
I'll listen for you every morning
I'll listen for you every morning
I'll listen for you every morning
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
Your reflection in the pane
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
Apples, pears, prunes, and plums
His favorite food, I told his mum
Wait for him at the end of the slide
When he climbs the stairs, stay by his side
I heard you got some rain
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
Looks like we're in for the same
Peterborough and the Kawarthas
I'm going early, won't wave good-bye
Tell him I love him; look him in the eye
I've learned how to mourn; I've learned how to miss

I'll listen for you every morning

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
So the dumb American Googled "The Kawarthas" in an attempt to figure out what this song is about and got...a weather report! LOL, I thought that was rather appropriate.
(If anyone else was wondering, it seems to be a region in Ontario. Peterborough is a town there.)
Anyway, now that I've worked that out, I think this is actually a pretty straightforward song about leaving his baby behind (to tour?), missing the baby, hoping he's well taken care of.
