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”
I'm trembling at the knees
I'm drooling at the mouth
I open up my gob and then nothing comes out
Hey!
I've got a new car
Let's go for a ride
You know
I'm not very skilled the art of seduction
You could stamp it on my head and I still wouldn't catch on
Well why can't you see
What you're doing to me?
You know
You are my fantasy
You make me really tingly and I wannabe wannabe
I wannabe your fantasy
You know I can be sexy when I wannabe wannabe
The temperature's rising
And you're as cold as ice
I said
I stalk you at night
If you put up a fight
You know
My girfriend
She doesn't know a thing
Pure ignorance is such a beautiful thing
You put on this voice
Like I had a choice
You know you know
You are my fantasy
You make me really tingly and I wannabe wannabe
I wannabe your fantasy
You know I can be sexy when I wannabe wannabe
You are my fantasy
So give this a go
Hey! Hey!
You are my fantasy
You make me really tingly and I wannabe wannabe
I wannabe your fantasy
You know I can be sexy when I wannabe wannabe
You are my fantasy
You make me really tingly and I wannabe wannabe
I wannabe your fantasy
You know I can be sexy when I wannabe wannabe
You fill my dreams up at night
These sordid thoughts just ain't right
I love the girl that I'm with which I find hard to admit
You can't speak English I know
So I will talk nice and slow
So we can figure it out before we give this a go
The clothes you wear
They don't fit
The local girls they feel sick
Cos their boys have their eye on this foreign delight
From all my pointless refrains
I guess that all that remains for me
To push how I feel and make this fantasy real
I've got a pain in my head
To think of things that I've said
To get your hormones on fire
For burning want and desire
Unanswered actions of men
These injured egos give in
To find another release
In pornographic disease
I'm drooling at the mouth
I open up my gob and then nothing comes out
Hey!
I've got a new car
Let's go for a ride
You know
I'm not very skilled the art of seduction
You could stamp it on my head and I still wouldn't catch on
Well why can't you see
What you're doing to me?
You know
You are my fantasy
You make me really tingly and I wannabe wannabe
I wannabe your fantasy
You know I can be sexy when I wannabe wannabe
The temperature's rising
And you're as cold as ice
I said
I stalk you at night
If you put up a fight
You know
My girfriend
She doesn't know a thing
Pure ignorance is such a beautiful thing
You put on this voice
Like I had a choice
You know you know
You are my fantasy
You make me really tingly and I wannabe wannabe
I wannabe your fantasy
You know I can be sexy when I wannabe wannabe
You are my fantasy
So give this a go
Hey! Hey!
You are my fantasy
You make me really tingly and I wannabe wannabe
I wannabe your fantasy
You know I can be sexy when I wannabe wannabe
You are my fantasy
You make me really tingly and I wannabe wannabe
I wannabe your fantasy
You know I can be sexy when I wannabe wannabe
You fill my dreams up at night
These sordid thoughts just ain't right
I love the girl that I'm with which I find hard to admit
You can't speak English I know
So I will talk nice and slow
So we can figure it out before we give this a go

The local girls they feel sick
Cos their boys have their eye on this foreign delight

To push how I feel and make this fantasy real
I've got a pain in my head
To think of things that I've said
To get your hormones on fire
For burning want and desire
Unanswered actions of men
These injured egos give in
To find another release
In pornographic disease

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
Amazing song, love it
