In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I don't mind you telling me what's been on your mind lately
I don't mind you speaking up
I know sometimes I can be all wrapped up and into me
I can be in such a rush
Just slow me down, slow me down
Tell me, tomorrow, everything will be around
Just slow me down, slow me down
You're the one who keeps me on the ground
Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You could even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'll be crushed
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love
I can take your honesty
All your words weigh heavily
Listening to you all the time (all the time)
I wanna be there for you the way you've been there for me
Always help me walk the line (walk the line)
And slow me down, slow me down
I know you will always be around
Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You could even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'll be crushed
Just do it with love, love, love, love
All this time we finally know each other
Now that I've been leaning on your shoulder
I can tell you, baby, that
You're right when you're right
You're wrong when you're wrong
And I can be weak 'cause I know you'll be strong
Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You could even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'll be crushed
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You could even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'll be crushed
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love
Just do it with love
I don't mind you speaking up
I know sometimes I can be all wrapped up and into me
I can be in such a rush
Just slow me down, slow me down
Tell me, tomorrow, everything will be around
Just slow me down, slow me down
You're the one who keeps me on the ground
Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You could even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'll be crushed
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love
I can take your honesty
All your words weigh heavily
Listening to you all the time (all the time)
I wanna be there for you the way you've been there for me
Always help me walk the line (walk the line)
And slow me down, slow me down
I know you will always be around
Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You could even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'll be crushed
Just do it with love, love, love, love
All this time we finally know each other
Now that I've been leaning on your shoulder
I can tell you, baby, that
You're right when you're right
You're wrong when you're wrong
And I can be weak 'cause I know you'll be strong
Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You could even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'll be crushed
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Baby, you can be tough
Say enough is enough
You could even be blunt
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Tell me I'm wrong
That I'm coming on way too strong
Don't think I'll be crushed
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love, love, love, love
Just do it with love
Just do it with love

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/

i really hate this song
im in love with song. i used to hate hilary duff with a passion, but yeah i really really like this song. its different from her other stuff. at first i thought lindsay lohan sung this.
It's about a girl who gets carried away and wrapped up in herself at times, she knows that her boyfriend is concerned too. She is telling him to keep her in check and not let the fame go to her head. She's telling him that he can be blunt and do what it takes to get the message out, but do it with love.
She's so beautiful, way better than her sister!
