Shooting Star

Air Traffic

Pretty, if the sun won't shine
I'll be coming out to meet you
I'll be there to make you mine

Pretty, if the rain will pour
I'll be knocking at your window
I'll be begging you for more

It is as if you've come along too soon
And I'm trying to fit you in
But I can't seem to find the room

Cutie, if it all falls through
We can piece it back together
I can learn to trust you too

You're just too good to lose
And I can't refuse
So don't make me choose
Between the two

I'm fed up in here
In my atmosphere
Don't you know who you are
You're my shooting star

Pretty, teach me wrong from right
'Cause in love there are no answers
And in life there is no lie

Pretty, if the sun won't shine
Now you've come this far to meet me
And I know, I know you're mine

You're just too good to lose
And I can't refuse
So don't make me choose
Between the two

I'm fed up in here
In my atmosphere
Don't you know who you are
You're my shooting star

Don't you know who you are
You're my shooting star

    I've just listenned to the song again and im pretty sure that it's "in love there are no answers and in life there is no right" not "in life there are no answers..."

    Im not 100% but it sounds right! Possibly their best song! Awesome band!

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
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”

Magical
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.

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.
