Standing in the mirror and
Try to imagine
Forever, what does it look like?
Facing my greatest fear and ever

Suddenly closing my eyes
Hands up for the very first time
I'm closing my eyes

Tell me I dont give up
Tell me there's someone out there
Give me a pure love
Give me a forever that we can both share

Show me its okay
Show me its all right
That i'm fall from crazy for living my fate not by side

Will he be proud of
All of the things I've done
My mistakes, the things that I, regret
Wishing that i could forget
My heart breaks

Suddenly closing my eyes
Hands up for the very first time
I'm closing my eyes

Tell don't give up
Tell me there's someone out there
Give me a pure love
Give me a forever that we can both share
Show me its okay,
Show me its all right
that i fall from crazy

For living my fate not by side (guitar)
Eyes can only see so far
tired of wishing of all these stares
So i close my eyes and pray
Nothing comes to mind so i let my heart say

Tell me don't give up
tell me there's someone out there
Give me a pure love
Give me a forever that we can both share

Show me it's okay
Show me it's all right
That I'm fall from crazy
For living my fate and not by side

Tell me don't give up
Tell me there's someone out there
Give me a pure love
Give me a forever that we both can share

Show me its okay
Show me its alright
That I'm fall from crazy
For living my fate and not by side

Give me a love
Give me a love
Give me a pure love
Give me a love
Give me a love
Give me a pure love

    Great song, but there are several mistakes in these lyrics, here are the correct lyrics:

    Standing in the mirror and Try to imagine Forever, what does it look like? Facing my greatest endeavor

    Suddenly closing my eyes Hands up for the very first time I'm closing my eyes

    Tell me I don't give up Tell me there's someone out there Give me a pure love Give me a forever that we can both share

    Show me it's okay Show me it's all right That I'm far from crazy for living by faith and not by sight

    Will he be proud of All of the things I've done My mistakes, the things that I regret Wishing that I could forget My heart breaks

    Suddenly closing my eyes Hands up for the very first time I'm closing my eyes

    Tell me don't give up Tell me there's someone out there Give me a pure love Give me a forever that we can both share Show me its okay Show me its alright That I'm far from crazy For living by faith and not by sight

    Eyes can only see so far Tired of wishing of all these stars So I close my eyes and pray Nothing comes to mind so I let my heart say

    Tell me don't give up Tell me there's someone out there Give me a pure love Give me a forever that we can both share

    Show me it's okay Show me it's all right That I'm far from crazy For living my faith and not by sight

    Tell me don't give up Tell me there's someone out there Give me a pure love Give me a forever that we both can share

    Show me its okay Show me its alright That I'm far from crazy For living by faith and not by sight

    Give me a love Give me a love Give me a pure love Give me a love Give me a love Give me a pure love

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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/

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.
