If we could sit together a moment
And talk forever just to pass the time
I would smile as the shivers and chills
Run down my spine
And your eyes are locked on mine
Oh, we'll fill the metro skies with country air
And when you close your tired eyes
I'll meet you there

I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there

Deep inside of you
There's a ruby glow
And it gets brighter
Than you and I will ever know
There's a rushing sound
That surrounds us
When we walk alone
And it's everything we've never known

(Wonder down the street and I will be the pavement beneath your feet)

If we could just be immobile for some time
And finally figure out the way we feel
About the missing puzzle pieces and cloudy question marks
That still look a bit surreal
Oh, I tend to disappear
Here and there
So concentrate and you'll feel me
Everywhere
And we'll fill the metro skies with country air
If you're lost when you close your eyes
I'll meet you there

I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
You could be anywhere
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
You could be anywhere
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
Open your eyes and see
You could be anywhere
Everything you can be
I'll meet you there
Open your eyes and see
You could be anywhere
Everything you can be
I'll meet you there

    Aw, i can't believe no one commented on this. To me this is about two people, they are in relationship , probably a long-distance one and the person singing is basically saying, "i will always be with you."

    Umm.. I partly agree with the above. I see it as him dreaming. Kind of saying.. more along the lines of.. "(In our dreams,) we'll always be together"

    I agree with Something solid. He's saying that no matter where they are, the essence of the other person will always be with them and the other person is always by their side no matter what.

    I definately think it could be taken as a long-distance relationship feel, but I think it is more of Adam singing about his relationship with God, since he is a Christian and all. It's awesome either way.

    i love the line, "missing puzzle pieces and cloudy question marks" i feel like no matter what relationship this song is describing, one with God or with someone you love but can't be with, that line is the perfect description of how things feel sometimes.

    ahh i love adam young!

    See I got a totally different feel from it . I think it's more he likes a girl, and given the chance they could see the full potential between the two of them .

    "If we could just be immobile for some time And finally figure out the way we feel About the missing puzzle pieces and cloudy question marks It still looks a bit surreal"

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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 &gt; 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.

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.
