There goes the sun

Just trying to find your way anywhere
But you've come to find you're alone
It's getting dark and you've lost your way
I haven't let you go as long as you know that

I'm losing what's left of my dignity
But I'll fight till the end for her heart
I'll never give up for what's possibly
For better or worse this love must be cursed

You just try to keep your head down
But you come to find that trust has come and gone
Everyone out there is listening
But you don't care at all and you're probably glad to know

I'm losing what's left of my dignity
But I'll fight till the end for her heart
I'll never give up for what's possibly
For better or worse this love must be cursed

You already let it pass through your lips
You can't take it back now
(It's already out)
You already let it pass through your lips
Can't take it back
(It's already out)

You already let it pass through your lips
You can't take it back now
(It's already out)
You already let it pass through your lips
You can't take it back now

I'm losing what's left of my dignity
But I'll fight till the end for her heart
I'll never give up for what's possibly
For better or worse this love must be cursed

I'm holding on to her
(This love must be cursed)
I'm holding on to her
(This love must be cursed)
I'm holding on

I'm afraid to say she never made it home
Couldn't keep her head on
She was so close
I'm afraid to say she never made it home

I'm afraid to say she never made it home
I'm afraid to say she never made it home
I'm afraid to say she never made it home
(Couldn't keep her head on)
Afraid to say she never made it home

    I've never tried this before, but here I go: What I see in this song is a girl who has been in many relationships, but it all of them end in disaster(probably cheating or dishonesty), so she has become afraid to trust and be in relationships. And then the guy, who loves the girl, is trying as hard as he possibly can, despite everything in his way, to win her heart and earn her trust and be with her. But the girl just can't hold onto life and what she has been through and commits suicide, without ever knowing there was actually a man she could trust right in front of her face.

    My first try at interpreting lyrics haha, but this is a great song.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
