You make me happy
Whether you know it or not
We should be happy
That's what I said from the start
I am so happy
Knowing you are the one that I want
For the rest of my days
For the rest of my days
You're all of my days

You're looking so cool
You're looking so fly, I can't deny
That when I'm staring you down right dead in the eye
I wanna try
To be the person you want
The person you need
It's hard to conceive
That somebody like you
Could be
With someone like me

I'm happy knowing that you are mine
The grass is greener
On the other side
The more I think
The more I wish
That we could lie here for hours
And justa, reminisce
Oh oh

You're lookin' so fresh
It's catchin' my eye
Why oh why
Did I not see this before
The girl I adore
Was right in front of me
And now I'll take a step back
And look in your eye
And ask why
It took us so long to see
We're meant to be

I'm happy knowing that you are mine
The grass is greener
On the other side
The more I think
The more I wish
That we could lie here for hours
And justa, reminisce
On the good the bad the ugly
The smiles the laughs the funny
Or all the things
We put each other through
It's for you for you
For you

You make me happy
Whether you know it or not
We should be happy
That's what I said from the start
I am so happy
Knowing you are the one that I want
For the rest of my days
For the rest of my days

I'm happy knowing that you are mine
The grass is greener
On the other side
The more I think
The more I wish
That we could lie here for hours and justa, reminisce
Oh oh

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.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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/
