I'm only sure of one thing
That's you right now
I hear your voice
And what we talk about
And I'm trying to say
It won't come out
Yeah I'm trying to fix this broken mouth

And I'm wishing that I could take your hand
And set you on some untouched land
Just so you are never sad again
And you world you have known will somehow end

There's a beating to your heart
That I just can't be apart

I can feel the rain fall down on us together
Just wait for the sunshine
Let's wait for the new day
When we can't get away
It's me and you held close together
Hold on for the long ride
This won't be easy, tonight

To hear my voice and know that I am here
I'm always there to wipe away your tears
I lay your hair behind your gentle ear
And tell you there is nothing more to fear

You are the reason I am the best I'll be
So let me stitch your heart so it won't bleed
And I won't rest until you finally breathe
'Cause I still love you more than anything

There's a beating to your heart
That I just can't be apart

I can feel the rain fall down on us together
Just wait for the sunshine
Let's wait for the new day
When we can't get away
It's me and you held close together
Hold on for the long ride
This won't be easy, tonight

I can feel the rain fall down
I can see the clouds leaving town
I can tell your life's turned round
And I can hear you singing so loud, now

I can feel the rain fall down on us together
Just wait for the sunshine
Let's wait for the new day
When we can't get away
It's me and you held close together
Hold on for the long ride
This won't be easy, tonight
This won't be easy, tonight

    Correction: it's "Yeah, I'm trying to fix this broken mouth" not "Yeah, I'm trying to fix what's broken now"

    This song I think is about how this person loves another person and how they combat the struggles of life together. The good and the bad, as long as they're together, they can make it through :)

    can i also point out that in Jimmy Eat Worlds song, he says " Just wait for the right time" in the Chorus. Travis in this one is singing " Just wait for the sunshine" and it's funny how both say it with the exact same tone. For the ones who don't know Jimmy Eat World, their song has been out since 2004.

    This is a really great song, but the melody everything is just like 23 by Jimmy Eat World. I swear, listen to both songs, they sound just the same, the verse and chorus the guitar melodies. I have the feeling they listened to that song, since these guys love jimmy eat world, and thought maybe take the melody :) lol. I don't know, anything is possible.

    at first i thought this was a breakup song by the line "this wont be easy tonight" but when i listen to it more it doesnt sound like a breakup song but a "lets be together forever" song :D

    Song Meaning

    To me this always sounded like the singer had a girlfriend who was being bullied who was maybe suicidal ("I hear your voice and what we talk about") and he was trying to tell her that he would always be there for her. It's a really cute, romantic song!

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
