The Stars Where We Came From

VHS Or Beta

I'm crawlin' on my hands and my knees
Just to get there
It's heavy and I'm starting to bleed
But I just can't leave it
I'm sad enough to know that I'm happy
And I just can't feel it
And I'm prayin' just to keep my beleifs
And I hope that you'll be there

Savin' every breath that I have
Just to keep this
The ground beneath my feet starts to shake
And I know that I'm fallin'
I've got to run to you like I've no breath to live
I know I'll only have this one life to give
And leave the rest of you and I to the stars
Where we came from

Would you come and take this from me
If you knew that I was real
Would you take the life of every
Heart you'd ever steal
I stay awake and run through every
word we couldn't feel
And would you come and lay me down
Then let whats broken heal, yeah

Would break the hope and promise
Of every single day
Would you drop the fear of givin'
everything away?
Would I want to see you runnin'
If I knew that we had died
So would you come and save this feeling
And at least know that we tried
yeah

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
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/

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
