Oh
Ohh, whoa, ohh

I love to see you walk into the room
Body shining, lighting up the place
And when you talk, everybody stops
'Cause they know you know just what to say and
The way that you protect your friends
Baby, I respect you for that
And when you grow, you take everyone you love along
I love that shit

Don't fly me away
Don't need to buy a diamond key
To unlock my heart
You shelter my soul
You're my fire when I'm cold
I want you to know

You had me at, "Hello"
(Hello) hello
(Hello) hello
(Hello)
You had me at, "Hello" (hello)
(Hello) hello
(Hello) hello
(Hello, hello)
It was many years ago (ago)
Baby, when you (when you)
Stole my cool (stole my cool, my cool)
'Cause you had me at, "Hello"
(Hello) hello
(Hello) hello
(Hello, hello)

I get so excited when you travel with me
Baby, while I'm on my grind
And never would I ever let my hustle
Come between me and my family time and
You keep me humble out of this hype
'Cause you know there's more to life
And if I need you, you will be here
You will make the sacrifice

Don't fly me away
Don't need to buy a diamond key
To unlock my heart
You shelter my soul (ohh)
You're my fire when I'm cold (ohh)
Just want you to know

You had me at, "Hello"
(Hello) hello
(Hello) hello
(Hello)
You had me at, "Hello" (hello)
(Hello) hello
(Hello) hello
(Hello, hello)
It was many years ago (ago)
Baby, when you (when you)
Stole my cool (stole my cool, my cool)
'Cause you had me at, "Hello"
(Hello) hello
(Hello) hello
(Hello, hello)

Gotta feel you and be near you
You're the air that I breathe to survive
Gotta hold you, wanna show you
That without you my sun doesn't shine
(You don't have to try so hard for me to love you)
Boy, without you my life just ain't the same
(You don't have to try so hard for me to love you)

You had me at, "Hello"
(Hello) hello
(Hello) hello
(Hello)
You had me at, "Hello" (hello)
(Hello) hello
(Hello) hello
(Hello, hello)
It was many years ago (ago)
When you (when you)
Stole my cool (stole my cool, my cool)
'Cause you had me at, "Hello"
(Hello) hello
(Hello) hello
(Hello, hello)

It was many years ago
Baby, when you
Stole my cool
You had me at, "Hello"
Hello
Hello

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
