40 miles to go
And there is no summer
Could you take me home?
Could you be yourself?
And the way you are
Made to feel unwanted
And heal too slow
I can feel the sway
Beneath my feet as we go
Can't amputate it
Need to explore
Does anyone believe you were low?
40 miles to go
Could you take me home?

Is there anyone that won't believe
Two collide and two can breathe
Anything to be alone
Anywhere you want to go
Finally begin to see
But lose the light in front of me
Find the days
The hours to reform

40 miles to go
And there are no reasons
If it isn't fair
I could be myself for you
But I did not care
This is my new season
And you are not there
If I could only feel like I belong
40 miles to go
Could you take me home?

Is there anyone that won't believe
Two collide and two can breathe
Anything to be alone
Anywhere you want to go
Finally begin to see
But lose the light in front of me
Find the days
The hours to reform

Forty miles to go
You were walking wounded
Wouldn't take me long
To find my way again
Into your arms again
40 miles to go
Could you take me home?

Is there anyone that won't believe
Two collide and two can breathe
Anything to be alone
Anywhere you want to go
Finally begin to see
But lose the light in front of me
Find the days
The hours to...
Find the days
The hours to...
Find the days
The hours to...
Find the days
The hours to reform.

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”

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
