This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
You were waiting for me, you saw me, adore me
As I wish the whole world would
You would never hurt me, desert me or work me
For all the things you thought you could
And you would lick the tears from my eyes when I cry
How I missed you when I was gone
Hurt me so to leave you, deceive you, I needed you
I believed in you
Oh, I, I never meant to let you down
I'll wait with a stake in my heart
I never meant to put you down
I'm trying not to fall apart
Now all I have is riches and pictures and stitches
Money could never buy what you give
And though my heart is achin' and breakin', I'm makin'
The most of what you send my way
Now I want just to hold you, unfold you, I told you
See, I am coming back for you
Yeah, I know we will be okay everyday, the sun
Shines a little brighter
Oh, I, I never meant to let you down
I'll wait with a stake in my heart, I
Never meant to put you down
Yeah, I'm trying not to fall apart
I never meant to let you down
I'll wait with a stake in my heart, I
Never meant to put you down
I'm trying not to fall apart
I'm trying not to fall apart
We'll reunite, oh, we'll set a light
I'm pushing with all of my might
Oh no, I never meant to let you down, I
(I wait with a stake in my heart)
Never meant to put you down
(I'm trying not to fall apart)
I never meant to let you down
(I wait with a stake in my heart)
I never meant to put you down
Yeah, I'm trying not to fall
As I wish the whole world would
You would never hurt me, desert me or work me
For all the things you thought you could
And you would lick the tears from my eyes when I cry
How I missed you when I was gone
Hurt me so to leave you, deceive you, I needed you
I believed in you
Oh, I, I never meant to let you down
I'll wait with a stake in my heart
I never meant to put you down
I'm trying not to fall apart
Now all I have is riches and pictures and stitches
Money could never buy what you give
And though my heart is achin' and breakin', I'm makin'
The most of what you send my way
Now I want just to hold you, unfold you, I told you
See, I am coming back for you
Yeah, I know we will be okay everyday, the sun
Shines a little brighter
Oh, I, I never meant to let you down
I'll wait with a stake in my heart, I
Never meant to put you down
Yeah, I'm trying not to fall apart
I never meant to let you down
I'll wait with a stake in my heart, I
Never meant to put you down
I'm trying not to fall apart
I'm trying not to fall apart
We'll reunite, oh, we'll set a light
I'm pushing with all of my might
Oh no, I never meant to let you down, I
(I wait with a stake in my heart)
Never meant to put you down
(I'm trying not to fall apart)
I never meant to let you down
(I wait with a stake in my heart)
I never meant to put you down
Yeah, I'm trying not to fall

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
Dude, she blew it. She decieved him and left him for money. Now she's just left with: riches - what she left him for, pictures - memories of him or them, and stitches - her wounds inflicted by the choice she made. The line, "I'm makin' the most of what you send my way" sounds like a reference to alimony. She seems pretty sure that he'll take her back and thinks will go back to great. It almost never works that way, and I wonder if Sia intended it to be the hope she feels right before she's about to be crushed. Or maybe that's just me being pessimistic
